Free college

FIFY

I don't agree with paying for betas and their Sociology of Basket Weaving degrees.

I like Tucker Carlson’s suggestion from last nite. (Private) Universities take responsibility for charging six figures for a degree by co-signing student loans. p

You think a gender studies degree is worth six figures Yale Admin? Put your money where your mouth is.

Put aside the fact that it’s not free and someone is paying for it etc.

I mean it's the same for elementary school, middle school, high school, etc.. It's daycare where kids learn a little, and are probably brainwashed along the way. Either abolish the Department of Education or give incentive to make better grades in high school. You front the bill w/loans through your basics (or a year of trade school), and if you hit a passing GPA without academic academic suspension and declare a major, we can foot the bill for the final two through undergrad (or final year of trade).

I think that is common ground that might satisfy those wanting "free" college and give enough incentive to not piss away your freshman/sophomore years.

Well Louisiana implemented TOPS and our cost of college hasn't increased at a rate higher than the national average or anything so frick it why not?

70% of my daughter's tuition is covered by scholarships, and still, the cost is enormous.

1. Stop the scam of federally secured college loans altogether.

2. Start tracking students like a motherfricker around age 10.

3. Prepare a work-readiness curriculum on a state level that partners with local employers to give average and below average students OTJ experience in a variety of fields: retail, sales, trades, etc with a goal of 100% first time job placement by age 18 (ideally with 1-2 years experience already).

4. Outlaw the ability of employers to require a college diploma for any specific position. Ideally by federal statute, but if a Constitutional Amendment is necessary, so be it.

I believe the growing pool of college educated young people, with poor career opportunities has contributed to the frustration that you see from the left.
