RE: The Racket that is Private College: Chapter One
I agree that it's a scam, but I don't agree that "they" teach very little. There are some serious offenders that truly do not teach their students, several of which have been forced to close their doors in recent years. However, the price for an education that still serves as the primary mechanism by which to advance one's career or quality of life is excessive, and the accountability of how those dollars are used doesn't exist.
Yes i agree and shouldn't tar everyone with the same brush :)
Hard not to since those hits close to home for so many. I think the solution is for people to stop pursuing formal degrees and instead go for certificates, workshops, and one-off trainings. Expect development from your employer and take advantage of that.
Yes agreed.. I did an apprenticeship including specific courses needs to achieve it. All worked out fine and never acquired any debt
You played it right!
