[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting article.  Particularly interested in what people who think it is "harder to get admitted now" think of it.

People are realizing that shitty colleges and dumb majors are worthless especially if you have to accumulate student loan debt.
A lot of colleges should go out of business.[/quote]

Not really, since most of the decline is at the cheapest community college.  The data don't fit your narrative.[/quote]

Love how people don't read the story and then post.  Direct from the story:

The nation's community colleges are continuing to feel the bulk of the decline, with a 13% enrollment drop over the course of the pandemic. But the fall 2021 numbers show that bachelor's degree-seeking students at four-year colleges are making up about half of the shrinkage in undergraduate students, a big shift from the fall of 2020, when the vast majority of the declines were among associate degree seekers.[/quote]
