This country has really upped the “trashy” factor in the last few years.

The "_____ acceptance" of modern philosophy really sucks. Youre expected to respect everyone in "marginalized groups" regardless of merit.

I do not have kids. I am not too far outside of college myself.

That’s good that your kids are working hard. Keep up the good work. Sounds like you raised them right.

There’s a larger symptom now, though, where kids are taught that if they do not go to college they are some kind of failure, at least that is what I have observed. The result is that parents spend large sums, or students take out large loans and end up working at Starbucks. I guess this is a larger symptom of the middle class being hollowed out. Has globalization/offshoring really helped anyone?

If/when I have kids, I will see to it that they can go to college if they are there to learn.

Came in late, talking with each other when a speaker was speaking, phones ringing, parents playing games on their phone, posting on FB and whatever else, texting.

LOL, had to look that up. If I'd started off with that the response would've been "pics?" or you're a creep for looking at young firm arse cheeks on womenz.

Most of these guys can't read past the first sentence.

Thank you for sharing your completely anecdotal experience with us OP.

Instead they had a Q&A with student volunteers - five fat black girls. So I got DEI'd anyway.

So you came on here to bitch about how trashy and disrespectful the world is, and then proceed to trash the people actually trying to better the world. I am guessing you aren't in the group you think you are in.
