there should be zero college debt , absolutley everything can be learned on the internet. This college industry shouldnt even exist , its outdated by about 10 years now since the invention of the internet. same with public schools this industry should not even exist
you could kill these two industries totally, and hire some internet people to organize all the would be "college and public school knowledges" over the internets. alot less confusion and bullshit

ya know, i thought about what would happen if you got the MBA coursework, bought all the books required (used on ebay) and got the same education for $1200.
Then again, you'd miss out on all the drinking & getting laid that comes with college ???

Drop the "l".

great idea. though you'll probably find people with shitloads of cash vehemently opposed to such radical but fair ideas

imagine no college and public school in existance any more under the rule of a Johny falcon
people will get there smarts from the internet. people could still attain hoes without a "college" so i wouldnt worry about that. Drinking sucks beer tastes like shit , liquor tastes like shit, leave it to women to get drunk they are the "lost tsol "
us falcon brothers are not lost we want to attain knowledge about the universe and bang hoes we dont need to drink things that taste bad

LOL
are you a hippy now, Falcon?
Knowledge on the internet means little, because it comes with no direction. That's what unis/colleges are there for, to apply a sense of structure to the learning process.
**edit** i can't believe a gave a serious answer here. ;D ;D

Getting a college/university education and ultimately degree has become very accessible in the present age. Back in my undergraduate days, there was no internet access or online search machines, now everyone has become a google scholar with access to millions of sites with information.
I've even started to see many universities offering online BS & even MS degrees. I do believe this will be the way of the future.

Drinking usually leads to talking yourself into humping a sub-standard receptacle so I'm with J. Falcon on this one.

even the online curriculim should cost next to nothing after the programmer has laid the brickwork for the study
a million students could learn from a single sight for a degree at one time
this generation has more spaceship potential than any other

it's true, isn't? half of going to college is drinking/doing drugs, shagging and networking

Ecause knowledge is power---and cash I people's hands. No matter where you go on this earth, either the rich (and powerful) rule or the educated---and many times they go hand in hand...
Besides, just because you look at the Internet to gain knowledge, it doesn't mean you becomes intelligent. Who is the say that the info is legit? Also, it seems that the info that is available, the more ignorant people become...It's like, there is tons of info on losing weight, tons of gyms, yet more and more people become morbidly obese...
Like Raymondo said, unis/colleges/professors/teachers are there to give stucture to the learning environment.

Good idea, but college sports (gambling) would suffer greatly...

Actually, what you're describing is "Khan Academy" and it is going to revolutionize the educational world.

Major universities will be the next bubble to collapse. Now there are so many online colleges, tech/trade schools, and certification programs that there is no reason people should build six figure debts to get a good job. Between the declining admissions that these new sources of education will cause and the thousands of people defaulting or constantly deferring their student loans the major universities will be forced to cut costs and streamline or crumble. I think it will be a great thing for the middle class. If my brother wouldn't have gotten a full athletic scholarship he would have taken a curriculum at a trade school and had a degree for the same thing in 18 months verses 4 years.

While I do not consider the secondary education system to be perfect by any means, I still prefer that my doctor and dentist have taken real coursework and labs as opposed to having learned their procedures online.

Yah but why should it cost more than 5 dollars to learn proper procedures from course work, it seems like alot of people hard earned money isnt really buying what they need to know

I agree that the system isn't perfect, and I'm sure there are numerous cost savings to be had. I just don't know that it isn't worth some expense.

The academics are in cahoots with the jews. They're all wearing Nazi suspenders and stockings under those professorial robes.

at the moment learning how to fire rifles and how to cultivate a garden and start a fire seem more useful than any kind of degree...

Were already in a blended system, its only gonna get stronger as time goes on.
Education is changing rapidly, work internships and online learning are gonna get the average cost of degree down dramatically. Things are a changing as we speak, it really depends on your field to be honest.

Valid points.

It should be free, just like here in Sweden. Everyone has the right to an education and a steep fee excludes a big part of the population.
It's also a good investment for the state since an educated population is more productive and resource generating.

what's funny is that so many Diploma can be bought these days.....a CEO was recently fired after he was busted for a fake Diploma from Harvard school of business.......that fucking Diploma looks Legit.....hahahahhaha

for some reason, I keep comparing the Education system these days to the Oil industry.........just in 1996, you would pay about $5200 in tuition for two semesters at your local community college, now, that same local community college is $16,000 for the whole school year.......who the fuck is getting all this money?.......I'm sure someone is, oh, after you get that degree, good luck in finding quick Employment these days........
P.S. Don't forget your school loan...... ;)
