Maybe College Isn't A Good Idea Anymore

Matthew Archbold notes Pen Student Insurance Plan will be offering genital mutilation to those sick enough to think they want it. What a perversion of medicine; anybody remember the idea of not doing any harm? It's sad enough that there are people willing to make money off of this in the free market; now we have a college, apparently incapable of expressing the reality of gender (and the limitations of therapy, hormones, and surgery). And you want to send your dear child to one of these institutions.

Matthew suggests

Parents be very wary of where you send your kids to college.

I suggest perhaps sending them there at all is a bad idea. There are alternatives, many of which, like home-schooling will turn out to be much better for everyone.
The big juggernaut right now is accreditation, at least in terms of getting degrees in various areas, but there are online courses from various accredited colleges. Also more options appear as it becomes obvious to entrepeneurs that there is a market out there.

Perhaps most important is knowing what you actually want, rather than having this fuzzy feeling that such-and-so just has to go to college because it's such a formative experience. It is more likely to be a destructive experience nowadays, and the entire country is suffering from an overpopulation of sociologists already.
