Many more colleges need to go under unless they can reign in costs.

Could easily reign in costs by axing DEI and worthless degree programs

Higher education needs to be rebuilt from the ground up.

It shouldn’t be $43k out of state to send your kid to Alabama in an era where you can attend virtual lectures from Oxford or Harvard for free.

Too many students attending college paying too much to do it without enough jobs to justify the expense.

It’s a broken model propped up by student loans.

They won't learn. Many of these colleges turned themselves into little more than job programs for the otherwise unemployable with overpriced, out-of-demand degrees. Bloated administrative staff they refuse to fire will drag them down eventually.

And offer real training in areas that offer good chances of gainful employment rather than Marxist BS.

The costs are directly tied to student expectations of amenities (not instruction). A lot of folks don't understand this about higher ed.

You need at minimum one DEI position for every 10 students to minimize the far reaching effects of institutional racism.
