Something I don't like about college

[-Samurai-]

Hey, here we didn't decide to have an insane system purpose built to force hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt onto students (though it is going that way recently). Take that issue up with congress but don't tell me that when you leave college you'll never have to learn again. A lot of jobs require on the job training, refresher courses, new training, policy change training, reattending classes you did because the state of your field has advanced. If you are going into a scientific or medical field you are never really leaving education.

Not once did I say you'd never have to learn again. I'm saying people shouldn't be forced to pay for something they don't need. Especially if it's guaranteed they'll never need it for their profession.

Where the hell did you get that I said that?

The problem I have with my college is how the teachers go about teaching the material. To them, the only way to teach is to pull up a powerpoint and read it to the class for the next 2 hours. Christ, I could do that at home. At least my teachers in high school tried to make it engaging. Also, where the fuck is the creativity? Back then, I could turn in a 5 minute video for a project(you know..something creative), but now it's always a 5-20 page paper with a powerpoint.
