You may vaguely recall "Antioch College" and the reason why is that it was in the Capposphere before. I strongly recommend reading the original post to get the background, but the short version is the school was traditionally a conservative college. Was overrun by liberals and feminists. Gets shut down because of poor management. The Spearhead and myself cheer. A mom of one of Antioch's graduates brags about how great Antioch College was and how we're evil. My crack staff of Agents in the Field find out her daughter works at a non-profit, government funded theater in Ohio. We all laugh as once again, it proves the school produces nothing.
BUT GOOD NEWS EVERY ONE (Prof. Farnsworth accent)
Antioch College is back and charging NO TUITION.
The ONLY economic commentary I have on this, and the sole reason I recapped everything above is simply this:
Finally, a liberal arts school that accurately prices its programs. $0 for a worthless degree.
Now children will merely waste their time and not their money.
It is the only way
ReplyDeleteThe value of the credential is zero, so paying zero for it seems fair enough.

The problem with stuff being free is that no one values it. Look at social security and medicare - people abuse the system in ways you cannot imagine. My friend tells me tons of stories how people fraud these programs and I'm amazed, shocked, and realized that it does in fact happen.
ReplyDeleteWith this degree being free, I suppose no one will find it valuable if it's especially accurately priced.

Captain you owe me one! :D
So, we can finally disband with the myth that nonprofit, charity, or nongovernmental methods can potentially provide an education?
ReplyDeleteAt least they are using their own money.
Farnsworth is the best, isn't he!
ReplyDeleteOh, heavens my, yes!
