[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's great. Preferable to the seeming interminable coddling that seems to go on these days. I became independent at eighteen and put myself through college. Grew up a lot faster and appreciate the value of money more than many of my peers. [/quote] Agree with most of the above but how old are you, PP? Unless they are awarded a large scholarship or [b]attend community college[/b], it is nearly impossible for today's 18-year-olds to put themselves through college as the costs have far outpaced inflation.[/quote] And this is why I call bullsh*t on the "college is not affordable" for the middle class claim. There are plenty of options out there. [/quote] You can only attend community college for 2 academic years, though. Even the cost of just the 2 remaining years at a 4-year college needed to earn a BA/BS is astronomical & not something the vast majority of students can afford on their own.[/quote]
