Thank you my friend MAJ Dale E. Wilson, Ph.D. for making us aware the sad but unsurprising news that higher education is continuing to meltdown in term of both educational standards and virtually every other facet of higher education and management.

The education you get now simply isn't worth the price regardless of the degree. It's all been infected by political correctness virus to include the sciences and students would be better off looking for other roads to education

Lt Col Charlie Brown -- But what do you expect when society that used to deem that a High School Diploma was sufficient enough for an entry level job qualification deems that now a Bachelors Degree is the acceptable standard for an entry level job? Or when the average college freshman (2019 report) can barely read at the 7th grade level (even when the military went to requiring a HS diploma for enlistment, they still wrote manuals at the 8th grade level)? Or that only about half of college students get a (4 yr) degree in 5 years?

College Degrees are not worth the investment nowadays.
