college grad sues for tuition refund

Unread postby gt1370a » Sun 02 Aug 2009, 20:33:02

So it begins. People are realizing that majoring in things like "information technology" at schools like "Monroe College" (whatever the hell that is) just MAY not be worth going into debt to the tune of seventy freaking thousand dollars. As this becomes more pervasive, schools like this will have to either adapt significantly and start offering a curriculum that actually has some relevance to the real world and at a price people can afford, or else they will just cease to exist as institutions.

It is a private for profit college, it charges around $400 per credit hour, and $3000 a semester for a shared room.

Seems to primarily cater to african americans and other minorities, but doesn't exclude whitey.
