Staggering data about higher education

  • 4 year education is 27x more expensive since 2000 or, in my aging memory when I graduated college.
  • Doing 2 years at a community college can save $40,000

I know I have a horse in this race, but higher ed is delusional that it’s not going to get disrupted and hard. Why do I think that?

BECAUSE 40% of GRADUATES ARE UNEMPLOYED AT THE END OF THAT MONEY DUMP. If that’s the “positive” outcome your competitors have to chase (60% placement), I’d be willing to take the odds that you’re going to be a brontosaurus burger.
