I completely understand edu-industrials as Glenn and John are being in this episode and overall, heavily inoculated, ingrained, steeped in this issue professionally and also immensely scarred professionally. I find them dear; I hear them. But they are too close and uninteresting to listen to that they have survived and thrived despite it. On this and more and more topics recently.
The financial bias (manhattan institute?) is too much to take given the content. They seem incapable of stepping back, to observe and calculate the objective truths involved, or at least question their own certaintudes, which is anguish to listen to given my respect.
And to judge so harshly, it seems impossible to share my own, personal and heavily steeped bias. I am an outsider to the edu-industrial paradigm (hs dropout). I have been trod upon by Glen and John -alikes for decades. And it stings. The stinging has been softened by doing “alright” nonetheless. However it is clear, they lack profound understanding of my truth. Not their duty to do so, just what is.
Bottom line: no one should pay, borrow or beg for a 4 year degree - ANY INSTITUTION - that incurs more than a couple years of average middle-aged today’s earners salaries’ Once it exceeds that it all goes out of whack. And if your path to happiness requires 10x that amount (for any degree) to be successful or if my tax burden is involved to make that happen, I am between unsympathetic to hostile.
