  1. Excellent news. Colleges should feel the pain for abdicating their responsibility to offer a truly liberal education. With few exceptions, most of them are just devolving into cult training camps. With consequences that are obvious as we struggle to find young people suitable to enter the workforce.

    If enough colleges feel the pain and go bankrupt, the others might finally feel the pressure to reform themselves.

    It’s a shame that the Ivy Leagues are likely to remain resilient, but we can hold out hopes that they too will retreat from the risk of collapse.

    1. It’s sad that some people resent the value of a college education as much as you clearly do.

    2. Thanks Riley. I appreciate it. College education no longer has a great deal of value, certainly not in relation to the soaring price tag, which is one of the reasons enrollment is in a steady decline…and why so many of these schools have completely earned their financial hardship.

      This is the point where you’re supposed to call me “anti-intellectual” for not agreeing with the cult-like behavior that is now the status quo among most universities.
