Degrees from most prestigious universities should be worthless these days. After what we saw at Columbia and Harvard Universities last Fall, no parent should pay a nickel to send their progeny off to those learning institutions. President Donald J. Trump has offered universities a plan, where in exchange for certain guarantees, the schools would get the jump on grants and other Federal funds. California Governor Gavin Newsom has jumped ugly with his own threats to those California institutions who might consider the Trump plan. Still not worth it.
In the cause of full disclosure, my husband and I did go full tilt on our son’s education. He wanted to become a military officer and was accepted at The Citadel. We ponied up the cash, he wears The Ring and is a Major in the Army today. This is to say that if your little spawn has a plan and is committed it is worth it. If your angel is going for the prestige of a university degree, don’t play that game. Buy a bigger boat.
The universities have done this to themselves. The ancient hippies took over the faculty lounge and it has all turned to shite. They have even been screwing with the hard sciences like medicine. We all watched in horror last year when Jewish students at Columbia, UCLA, Harvard were intimidated, and anti-Semitic signs and protests abounded.
Liberal orthodoxy is the official religion of higher education. Gender ideology rules. For many years, Sex Week was a big deal at the University of Tennessee Knoxville campus, and many other schools. Hale, our Lisa wrote today about Harvard hiring a drag queen as a visiting professor.
