Eliminate tenure and Federal funding. College degrees are devalued and the kids learn/know less than when I even attended 15 years ago.

That's why I stuck to the sciences. You get to avoid all that BS for the most part.

I was reviewing applications for our graduate program the other day and had one from BYU. All his classes were science, sports or religion related. Actually a fair number of the latter, which I was surprised by. I guess I always thought of the education from BYU as being more of a normal college education not a religious one.

Anyway, not really much gen. ed. material at all. No psych, history, sociology, anthropology, etc.

Literally 3 of the 7 courses I would have named as having preaching profs (Psych didn't but that was a waste of time)

Windy does not like people who don't love a Trump the way he does.

Actually I hate assholes who make things up. Please review all my posts vis a vis Trump and indicate which ones demonstrate my love for him as opposed to a) my dislike of him or b) my loathing of Hillary. Hint I DO NOT LIKE HIM.

Dumb shit.

Does perpetual anger fulfill you? You are in luck, because there will always some random person out of 7 billion you can satisfy you need. Call it outrage porn. "Colleges are hotbeds of liberal indoctrination", that's soooo 1970's (actually it goes way further back than that).

Nope I'm actually a really easy going guy outside of work. Just because it goes back to the 70's doesn't make it incorrect, now does it'?

The woman thinks that trump voters are terrorists. You are anti crazy woman, thus you are clearly pro terrorist.

How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?

People who claim that there is no indoctrination at college are the same people who insist that NPR is a neutral news source.

You really got me there. Notice no one else accuses me of it. Mainly because they have a reading level above that of a toddler.

Trump supporter was offended? I thought that one of the pillars of making America great again was not being offended.

Well he appeared to have worked in the industry for a number of years before deciding to change career. So it seemed like he did OK with the degree.

Eliminate tenure and Federal funding. College degrees are devalued and the kids learn/know less than when I even attended 15 years ago.

Tenure exists precisely to protect that sort of thing.

What sort of Federal Funding?
