Precisely. Well said. (From what I understand, you know a bit about the devaluing of degrees).

Well, part of the problem is that isn't confined to only Louisiana. Other universities in the county are doing the same thing. So you're doing a disservice to Louisiana kids who are 'undereducated' if they don't have those diluted degrees. It will keep going on until a school has to close due to financial constraints.
