Can't say that I blame them

They wanted the campus experience, but their colleges sent them home to learn online during the coronavirus pandemic. Now, students at more than 25 U.S. universities are filing lawsuits against their schools demanding partial refunds on tuition and campus fees, saying they’re not getting the caliber of education they were promised.

The suits reflect students’ growing frustration with online classes that schools scrambled to create as the coronavirus forced campuses across the nation to close last month.

    Brainwashing is not education, so they weren't getting the caliber of education they were promised even when they were going to class.

    1. The phrase you used "weren't getting the caliber of education they were promised" really means the kids can't party close to home like they did away at school

  2. My son is taking technical classes at the local community college. Without the special drafting software, there's no way to do at home online courses, so he's screwed. And I am too, since I'm paying. Supposedly he'll get credit to complete the courses for free this summer, we'll see. No indoctrination, straight up technical for both kids. First one welder, second computer draftsman.

  3. I'm having the same problem for my welding technology course. I could finish all of one class online. It's not like I can come up with the 15k worth of welders I need to practice, but they sure are keeping my GI Bill payments.
