Freehat:
Each time you comment, it’s becoming more and more clear to me how right I was about you.
So far, you’ve been able to come up with no argument other than “a college education is obviously the most wonderful thing you can do, and if you can’t see that, and express that truth in the most enthusiastic ways, you’re nothing but an idiot who never went to college.”
You haven’t been able to articulate WHY this is so. Your logic is “A is true, and if you don’t agree, you’re wrong.” That is nothing but narrow-minded, anti-intellectual cant, and is a de rigeur part of the curriculum in the majority of the social sciences and liberal arts on college campuses.
How oblivious does a person have to be to read the testimony of one person after another, many of whom attended prestigious universities, and try to write their opinions off as the class envy (which in any other context you’d probably try to ramp up as much as possible) of people who never went to college?
And it’s not just “right-wingers” who see the dire problems that the university system has, though that is the group of people that all too many academics and wanna-be academics try to blame for their failures.
I would really like to see you make an argument for your position, rather than falling back on pre-packaged insults for people who don’t agree with you.
