I think at this point we are entitled, if not obliged, to ask, “Just was is college supposed to do for students?” I mean, they call it “higher education,” but who’s getting educated?
And so, because they’re ignorant, foolish, and flighty, they panic when they see a Catholic priest and think it’s a Ku Klux Klan guy.
Can you imagine going into World War II with these? The D-Day invasion would have pulled up lame at Scranton, Pennsylvania.
Again, what are all those colleges supposed to do?
Search me!
They have crafted a generation of idiots.
oh man…
The hard sciences seem necessary – pretty hard to learn chemical engineering on your own. But the non-hard subjects taught in college these days can be learned on one’s own time, especially now that we have the Internet. It seems to me it is just a matter of time until most of what we call college will be obsolete. How many people are already getting degrees from accredited universities online?
Again we ask–just what is it that college is supposed to *do*?
