Especially when considering the important contributions of these Universities?
" A Michigan State University associate professor's nude photographs that show him posing with students has prompted questions about art and ethics among some associated with the school."
"A doctoral candidate in Yale University's American Studies Program is teaching a course in "nightlife culture" that includes DJ lecturers, a field trip to New York nightlife hot spots Le Bain and the Boom Boom Room and a discussion titled "Looks, Doors and Guest Lists: Getting Past the Velvet Rope."
"Wolf will even create a one-off party at Yale to show the preppies how it is done."

I learned those things on my own hook while I was in the Army. For instance, we always wore our uniforms when we went to baseball games in NYC because they let us in free. Of course, we always took civilian clothes with us after our first experience at Birdland. That was quite a place but we were forced to sit at the bar because of our uniforms. I told them to stick the place but the next time we went to that town we were wearing civvies to determine if we were right. Sure as hell we got to pick our seats.
These courses are really important and kids who borrow money to go to school should know that by the time they pay the loans off they probably won't be using places like that. I guess many of them have figured that out and want to be able to continue to live the "fine" nightlife.
Yes and why not just bailout everyone? How about the taxpayers next, I find it difficult to pay taxes so I want a bailout, and then we need one whose cell phone bills are too high because they had to have an iPhone with all the apps and unlimited text messages and calls, and they needed one for every family member. Or someone whose electric bill is too high because they like to have all the lights on and heating the swimming pool runs up the kilowatts used.
Yes -- let's just declare one big bailout, no one has to pay any tax or any debt they don't feel like paying.
Exactly. I didn't know you needed a degree to "party?"
I do know that I don't want to pay for it.
I think you will find many more classes like those these days than in the past. There just weren't any of them to use as electives in my day or I would have looked into them. However, I worked my butt off to pay for that first degree and didn't have to borrow to get it.
As an undergrad at Cornell, my cousin took a course (for credit, mind you) in wine tasting.
I have heard of that at a local community college; nice to hear its at Cornell, also. And now, we the taxpayers are being asked to reimburse students for taking classes in partying, wine tasting and sex.
Student loans are taken out by adults and on adults. If you can get forgiveness for working in an underserved area or your job will pay off some, fine. Otherwise, student loans are up to the student. It keeps us all honest.
They CHOSE to go to school...and some of them went to a school they could never afford in a million years...and now they need to get a free pass for it?
GAWD.
