I did nearly a decade of college and without fail the more fancy effort a professor put in the less I learned about anything. As miserable as it was, forcing literal pen to paper with pages of notes and problems was the only truly effective measure to remember anything after the exam on it. And most of the (older, white) smarter ones knew it, which is why they deliberately did it, compared to the (younger, female) lazier ones who were big fans of "here is how you plug it into a calculator, and its done!"
Point of this is that as hilarious retarded as this is, its only going to make their goal less achieved. Both from people hating the thing enough to resist it, but also by them just learning less in general.
a decade of college 👀
I refused to get any loans or aid (junkie oil field family means I didn't qualify for many anyway despite being poor in reality) and because you can't enroll for classes with an outstanding balance I had a lot of "only one class for my degree and a bunch of filler" semesters, especially once you reach senior year and they teach each class once to a group of 15 out of 400 in the program. Its why I have a lot of math and engineering classes under my belt despite being a Psych major.
It sounds bad except I graduated with a degree, and a lot of actual diverse education learned, and zero debt, gaining a lot of work experience long before I was out.
Slow boat on a bachelor's + a master's can easily be a decade. That, or two bachelor's, since the DOE decided years ago that classes that apply for one degree cannot apply to another.
Wait when did they decide that? I have dual BS degrees and that woulda ruined that for me.
I know it was sometime before 2014. And it did ruin my dual BS for me. As well as my hopes of a cheap dual MS.
BSc, MSc, PhD, if you sum up is 10 years
Lots of people go to college for seven years
I'll always remember returning to college as an adult, and riding the bus home one day while I overheard two younger women talking. One says:
I still remember watching the absolute horror on a lot of girl's faces when at the beginning of one semester a (very old) professor said she would not be providing the slides for printing, and you'd be expected to not only copy what was on them but also take notes from the lecture itself.
Like they couldn't imagine that going to class had an actual purpose beyond getting homework back.
