Look at these moronic CACs going to such length for college
It is not any college. Those schools are legacy institutions. There are stories that most of the California state schools are running at 300% filled with Asians. For a white family to have their child there is like planting a flag on the moon. There is a certain prestige that comes with saying my child goes to USC.Look at these moronic CACs going to such length for college
Yep those four years I went to school for a specialized field and then earn a good salary was a complete waste of time. Quite frankly only the rich and well connected should be able to attend college. Anyone else desiring to pursue education and get a job beyond a call center job is wasting their time.I dont care. I think the parents should be freed, and paying to get into "elite" universities should be legalized.
They literally harmed no one, and the whole higher education system is a scam to begin with.
I just heard about this concept.I think about that all the time, and all the ways my life would be different, if I came from a different class, even just 1/3 more towards the "real" middle class in the late 90's, and even then, I am not quite in the realistic category for an Ivy league education, no matter what my intelligence, because of all the other dynamics against it, money, class, opportunity. I don't know anyone who went from poverty class/lower middle class to Ivy league, not one person, I know they exist, but it is extremely uncommon.
In regards to the case, they filed more charges, because they are the defendants who wouldn't plea, (which is why the other ones did, so quickly) now, only the most arrogant and wealthy will take it to trial, the rest will plea shortly.
Basically over the course of a lifetime, people born into well off setting tend to reap the benefits from being born in a great situation, whereas individuals born in a less fortunate situation, are constantly at a unique disadvantage.social structures shape human behavior and interpersonal relations. Furthermore, cumulation in childhood experiences shape life outcomes sometimes in negative ways. Inequality is, therefore, not a randomly determined misfortune, but rather a predestined state that one is born into. Although it is possible for inequality to come from an individual's own actions consequences, that is not always true. One's childhood experiences and conditions should also be taken into consideration since these experiences help mold a young individual into an adult.
I did, I guess. My dad was earning mid-20g in the 80s and low 30g in the 90s. Until I got to high school that was our family's only income, then my moms started working part-time. I won't be specific about where I went but outside of the state school I applied to be safe, the other four schools were all either Ivy League or Ivy League-equivalent (in terms of academic rigor and acceptance levels), and I got into three of them.I think about that all the time, and all the ways my life would be different, if I came from a different class, even just 1/3 more towards the "real" middle class in the late 90's, and even then, I am not quite in the realistic category for an Ivy league education, no matter what my intelligence, because of all the other dynamics against it, money, class, opportunity.

damnIn a few schools it's slightly different - I think Harvard and Brown soak up most of the low-income Black and Brown geniuses in the country. But the numbers who make it to that point are still ridiculously low.
exactly, @DEAD7 , then we wouldn't have the student loan crisis.Yep those four years I went to school for a specialized field and then earn a good salary was a complete waste of time.

@thekingsmen are you shocked that Harvard is using its endowment to invest in private prisons and soak up the debt for Puerto Rico.
It's crazy how when we try to play to @The Devil's Advocate the truth and reality of life is still fukked up.
