Should most of the colleges in the US be closed?

What Facts?

You're in the same boat as Zinc.

 

[Zincwarrior]

What insults? You mean facts make you butthurt.

You are God's true idiot.

 

[Picaro]

You are God's true idiot.

So, you don't even know what the Department of Education does.

Why is that?

Did our education system produce better results before or after the department was created? That's the bottom line.

I work in IT. If I convince the leadership of a company that they would be better served with a massively expensive new computer architecture and their mission critical software ran slower than it did and had more bugs causing problems than before, do I get a promotion or get fired? Does the leadership of the company sneer contemptuously at the architecture they had before, claiming they would go back to cave man days if they trashed the expensive, unwieldly, poorly performing architecture I convinced them to adopt, or would they immediately move to jettison the problem?

Or would they, like the usual suspects on here, be so emotionally welded to the new architecture that they would refuse any attempts to streamline it, debug it, and increase performance, to the point of replacing the whole thing?

Colleges are for profit entities; profitable businesses don't close down. LOL

I didn’t ask you for your opinion. I asked you what the DOE does.

No, you asked what the Education Department does, not what the Department of Energy. The Education Department is the federal government's education bureaucracy, and the question is whether we would be better off keeping it or discarding it. It's been around long enough to know, and I'm asking if the educational results we're getting after it was created are better than the ones we were getting before it was created. That's a fairly simple question, what are we getting for $90 billion?

We clearly can’t have a discussion on the EDUCATION DEPARTMENT unless you can show that you understand what they do.

Otherwise it’s just stupid knee jerk crap from you.

The University of Texas is a for profit entity?

IMO, the end goal of everything related to children's education should be higher intellectual achievement by said children. If an entire federal government department costing billions of dollars is set up for that purpose, is it not appropriate to ask if we're getting our money's worth? How much detail do you require before even attempting to address that question? You tell us, if they're not set up to improve the nation's education system, then what are they set up for? Go ahead and Google, we'll wait.

Again, what does the education department do?

I can see you're not ready to address the meat of what I asked, so let me know when you are.

You keep asking? Why not look it up for yourself? Oh yeah, now a I remember ...

You wanted to have a discussion. A discussion is not possible if you fail to understand the material.

 

[San Souci]

How many of us expected to live this long? Some of us made it to this age not because of what we did but for what we did not do. But that is a minor point. What about those kids that have our genes? Will they go to college and be so entitled and brainwashed that they will shoot someone in the back because of what they learned? I hope not.

Yes. They Suck.

 

[otto105]

Yes. They Suck.

Yeah, young maga fuckups hope to be the next mass murder shooter like their idols from Buffalo, El Paso and the florida night club killer.

Most killers and rapists are filthy Illegals. Or filthy College "Protestors".

Wrong. They’re American born.

Yeah . That Back shooter was Ivy League.
