I'm so sick and tired of libs demanding that students juggle scholarship applications, working, studying, and fucking starving in order to get through college.
Y'know what? I don't think students should have to fucking work during school and it is fcked up that we've normalized grinding people into dust in order to achieve an education.
Oh, and fuck you if you have a learning disability and can't do both school and work. Guess it's poverty for you, buddy.
Those social opportunities are better at getting set later in life than the degree.
Networking is more powerful than a resume. Yeah it’s basically a form of nepotism. Being in a frat in college is likely to give a better outcome than working full time to graduate without debt.
yeah, the frat society b.s. is proof of concept. frats are how elites baked in the social capital on top of the academic credential. however, the option for a better alternative is there to: joining or starting a chapter to some national some give-a-fuck organization, or being an active participant of the [insert interest here] club. the networking value can be realized a lot of different ways. maybe it won't launch a recent grad into some bullshit executive pipeline at JP Morgan Chase or BP, but whomst among us was trying to go that route anyway?
