Colleges have worked themselves 'out of a job,' report charges

'Failed to prepare them for the 9-to-5 workplace'

There's certainly no secret about the fact that American colleges and universities have gone far left.

Their faculty members only rarely include a conservative or a Republican. Their students learn that clearly.

Then instead of skills, logic and reason, the classes focus on diversity, equity, inclusion, race-baiting agendas, sex ideologies and more.

They tell members of women's sports teams they must allow men to share their locker rooms and they often allow advocacy for violence, such as the pro-Hamas protests that have happened in recent weeks.

"The higher ed system has worked itself out of a job," according to CEO Andrew Crapuchettes of RedBalloon. "By losing focus on the mission of preparing their students for their career, they've become a non-factor, or even a negative factor, in helping job seekers find a job."

A report in the Washington Times reveals that only 10% of small business owners in a RedBalloon survey said they want job candidates with college degrees.

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

To prospective employers: Look at the date of the degree, and the field.

There are a lot of useless degrees out there, depending on your workplace, but, depending on the vintage, many others that may have actually made the candidates more useful.

Due diligence and all that...

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
