Undergraduate education is not training. Why not just go to Ivy Tech.

- Only for STEM and business degrees. Everyone else pays for their hobby degrees. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 3:16pm 10/23/20
  - Right. Liberal education is for pussies. [NT] - Chris94 - 3:56pm 10/23/20

        Happily, Ivy Tech grads aren't asking me to pay for their degrees. They're responsible individuals. - NedoftheHill - 12:05am 10/24/20

- Weird. I figured those gender studies and race studies degrees paid for themselves. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 3:06pm 10/23/20
  - Is the student(or parents) who are actually paying tuition more likely to choose these majors, or - BaronVonZemo - 3:10pm 10/23/20
    - You live in the world where parents pay tuition. - iairishcheeks - 7:29pm 10/23/20
      - Then they shouldn't go into debt for a major that won't allow them to get a job. - NedoftheHill - 12:15am 10/24/20
    - Exactly. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 4:03pm 10/23/20
- So where does the 10k per student payment to universities come from? The tax payers..... - BaronVonZemo - 3:03pm 10/23/20
  - It's not at all free, it's applying capitalist principles to solve a problem. - iairishcheeks - 7:34pm 10/23/20
    - The socialist aspect of it will spoil it as I described. This hybrid doesn’t work (see healthcare). [NT] - BaronVonZemo - 8:05am 10/24/20
