College is over-rated. Ivy league colleges WAY over-rated,. No offense, but I think it's just name recognition hype.

Junior colleges, where people actually learn something useful, are under-rated.

ALL colleges should teach their students to do independent thinking, in case of the sad event that they failed to get it in high school.

From what I've seen, way too many higher educational institutions are teaching a biased agenda.

Princeton had over 50% make the dean list, the average grade in the Ivies is a A minus. They are a joke.

Any idea of how many US citizen students the Ivies took, versus the numbers of kids coming in from other countries????
