Universities shouldn't be able to force students to take nonsense liberal arts courses that have no relation to their major. For example, a STEM or Business major shouldn't have to take a feminist literature course in order to graduate.
As a recent college graduate that had to deal with this, it was infuriating to have to spend money on these nonsense liberal arts courses. The only reason universities force students to take these courses is to indoctrinate them, and because they realize they can milk Pell Grants and Federal loans. These pointless courses can be replaced with courses that actually relate to the student's major, and you could probably eliminate an entire years worth of courses just by getting rid of them (thus turning a 4-year degree into a 3-year degree).
I also fail to understand why universities are able to offer useless majors to students like "Women's studies", sociology, anthropology, philosophy, etc. Universities profit immensely by taking advantage of clueless students, and then these same students wonder why they can't land a job after graduating.
Agreed. It would be amazing to watch all these liberal arts "professors" get laid-off and be forced to find a way to function in the real world. Most of them have never left the education system and wouldn't be able actually get a real job.
Defund the thought police.
Trump should cap all loans at 5k per semester, forcing colleges to cut tuition and cut extraneous staff.
"Defund the thought police." I like it. We should really try to get this trending as this particular issue will drive them crazy. The left relies on the university system to indoctrinate young minds. Without it, they'd be lost.
Totally agree. Just found this - more ideas from VDH https://www.breitbart.com/radio//07/10/victor-davis-hanson-radical-long-term-solutions-leftist-academic-corruption/
