Despite having already claimed tuition from me, the university still begs for money, but this is the first time they've sent shit to my work address, which of course I never gave them. But it gets even better. The letter mourned the continuing loss of free speech on campus, but get this: apparently students of color feel the most marginalized! "Alright" I thought, "at least this isn't some chud shit". They then proceeded to brag about how a previous year they had paragon of free speech :jordan-eboy-peterson: visit campus, and how they want to continue this tradition of "challenging perspectives". They then asked for donations in the triple and even quadruple digits :agony-consuming:

Needless to say these fucks won't be getting another cent out of me as long as I draw breath and long after I cease.

      Most of them are basically daycare for high school graduates

      All of them are a grift though

        A grift is when you're sold one thing but receive something else, or nothing at all.

        Accredited universities give you essentially what they sell you on, it's just expensive as fuck.

            Agreed, but to me that's more of an "overpriced" issue than "this is fundamentally not what you paid for" issue.

            You're paying for a certificate employers value, education that is at least partially useful, and all the experiences that come with being a college student. You get essentially those things, you just (sometimes) find that what they actually do for you is (sometimes) not worth the cost.
