There are more programs on acceptance, then really focusing on the core curriculum. College is just further indoctrination into the presidents perfect world. I believe life experiences teach much more of reality then government-run schools and some colleges, today. Elementary through high school has been destroyed.

Literature? A foreign language? These are things that should have been taught from grade school through High School. This is not college material, unless you wish to specialize in these fields. College is supposed to be to prepare you for LIFE and you place in it! Not to cover ground that was neglected in lower studies because of constant, Government mandated testing!We have students entering colleges that do not even know a tenth of what we had to know just to get into high school! Most of this was mandatory in grammar school when I was young. But I guarantee you that every little bunta knows about Global Warming and that America is the cause of all the problems in the World!No, college is a place where your education is entwined with your future. Where your lower education blossoms and your brain is trained to think and resolve problems. It is a place to grow with more information and fact that you could digest in a lifetime, all to prepare you for a future and the rest of your life!And I never even went to college! But I have learned a lot from my children who have! Composition? Literature? A foreign language? These are things that should have been taught from grade school through High School.
