College used to be affordable. What happened? w/Ellen Schrecker The Chris Hedges Report

1. Tldr......

But one of the things I notices as my kids applied was that schools have clearly spent millions on the experience factors, as opposed to education.

By that I mean they have fitness centers that rival pro sports teams, theaters that are multi media stadiums, dorms that rival hotels, and food services that leave nothing unmet.

Yet class sizes are large, health and mental wellness services are poor, and the core academic facilities are more glitz than substance.

Yeah, I'm yelling "when I was a kid"...... what are ya going to do about it? Now get off my lawn.
