5k Online College? How would that work? CNN says I need to buy the $300 Textbooks, and pay 50k, and attend in person. Fauci also says Triple Masking is the only way to be safe.
I know some students at several different universities, and they are all furious, because they do not ever meet in person. They're paying for housing they dint need, because no on campus events. All "meetings" are by zoom (no classes, just meetings), last about 30 minutes once every week and are often cancelled. Tuition is still the same. No use of campus ammenities. Worst complaint: "I'm not learning anything!"
Yet they will earn degrees and enter fields they arent qualified for. This angers these kids enormously. These schools need to lose their accredation.
Unfortunately this is a symptom of both the mental enslavement and abuse of children who are conditioned to follow the ruling class' order of things. You do not need a college to teach you anything. You can teach yourself all kinds of things for essentially free. What "universities" are really about for most people is to buy into the middle class, to pay their royalties to the ruling class administrative strata so that you are both certified and tested and trained to follow the ruling class' orders, while at the same time entering into the alpha slave competition system that keeps you dependent and submissive to it.
In the near term, the best thing anyone can do to free themselves of the ruling class salve system is to cut back on their buying and spending and educating themselves and their children outside of the system for as long as it is possible … something that you really can't do in many places, including in many European countries.
I got a bunch of Pell Grants that paid over 50% of my undergrad degree. I lived off campus. I went to a very affordable community college my first two years then transferred.
Then I got a job at a grad school which provided free tuition as a perk for the job. So I essentially got my MBA as part of my salary package.
About to get a scholarship after completing my community college associate's on pell grants. Deans list multiple times and 4.0 gpa, if you can do it for free then take it, or near free, take it!
No need for 5,300 Econ 101 curriculums anymore. Just let students choose between an Adam Smith and a Karl Marx online path of courses. MAKE COLLEGE GREAT AGAN.
Ngl, many kids I went to school with, as long as they get their degree, wouldn't give a shit if they learned anything or not.... sad times we are living in.
https://www.wgu.edu/ does a good job on the Tech degree front. I had some people work for me that did those degrees because you took 17 certification tests along the way to the degree and it direct applied to their job skills as they went. I think it lacked in the Socratic method and some other finer points, but as an Advanced Vo-Tech for the new world's "plumbers and electricians" (programmers and infrastructure techs), I think it would be better than churning out psych majors and history majors.
That's what I did (CS) and I'd recommend to anyone to look into it . I transferred in like 60 credits and finished the rest in 6.5 months at 10 hrs per day. It's been hard realizing that the job search grind is unchanged even with a completed degree.
It wouldn’t work if you want to be taught be anyone thats educated in the topic. I work in a business school. Our expenses don’t come from books or buildings, it’s faculty. 80% of our budget is teaching salaries. We have low tuition too and make a small profit. Online schools still need to be taught by someone and those people want to be paid. Unless you’re okay teaching yourself.
Sure, but that’s largely teaching yourself. You never get to ask questions during a lecture. If you don’t understand something, you can’t clarify immediately. Online courses are not good for actual learning for the majority of people. I know this from personal experience and from student reviews the last year.
Plus you still need to pay someone to answer questions for small amounts of time. Do you want that person to be a cashier at Whole Foods or someone with a PhD in the subject?
I wish I had someone, anyone, to ask questions about DE. I'm not learning anything. I'm going to fail this class because I can't get any elaboration, every question is "refer to past lecture"
Depending on the subject you could get away with automated exams and grading it just depends on certifications and what they want. There is the potential for unlimited options between free open recorded coursework and full phd-graded assignments and consultations. The only constraint is accreditation and how much the student wants to spend. I think for example one person could be disciplined and smart enough to learn to be effective in a field from lecture videos, while another may want a more expensive approach
Agreed. My Original Comment was 99% Satire, I was kind of amazed that you could do any Bachelor's Degree for under 10k, last place I looked at was some Technical School, and it was like 12-13k.

I kind of gamed the system.

Good for you. Too bad MBA stock is down hard, especially after comments by Elon.
This is spot on.
Updooting for your name! Fucking awesome! 😂😂😂
The teachers don't know how to do online classes. They're having lectures at scheduled times and half the classes are "technical difficulties"

WGU student here...BS in Accounting. I love it and the tuition is no more than my state schools.

Screen name a reference to a sci fi book? Lomg time Piers fan.
Can confirm. Went from associates to bachelor's at WGU.

Record lesson once. Replay 1 million times. Have Q&A sessions separately for small amounts of time for those interested.

If we are teaching actually practical skills, from plumbing to computer science, there would be no need to use textbooks or PhD holders to teach
University is mostly a scam, and societal institutions are keeping them alive by requiring degrees for high paying jobs.

Isn't it interesting when a progressive tells you something can't bad can't be changed.
