>Has the concept of the academic institution become inept and obsolete in 2018? Is it now just a place for the children of the upper middle classes to party for four years and learn about art history and men see it as a scam?

Ayup -- Cf WORTHLESS

You should buy "Worthless: The indispensible guide to choosing the right major" by Aaron Clarey on Amazon. It is 4.93$ on Kindle (paperback costs 12$) and is going to save you lots of money in student loans by showing you what the best degrees are and which ones you must avoid at all costs. It is thanks to Aaron Clarey that I have gone back to college to major in electrical engineering. I found him through Terrence Popp's youtube channel, he is one of his sponsors. He gives amazing career advice, he is not a MGTOW but he is still very much red pilled though I would put him more in the purple piller category because he believes in NAWALTs but that does not matter for what you are seeking. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B006N0THIM/ref=tmm_kin_title_0?ie=UTF8&qid=&sr=

I'm sure the folks at A+ are just joyful at Aaron Clarey's "Worthless". That book perfectly defines "You want fries wid dat?"

My comment to the A+ ers it to tell 'em if you don't like the joke, then don't tell it. If you don't want to hear it, put your fingers in your ears and sing La La La La while I'm telling it.

I don't think there's anything Trump or anyone else can do, at least if you're talking about a traditional brick and mortar 4 year university. The reason for this is well meaning progressive policies. They said "college is a good thing, lets make it easier for them to go". They offered cheap and easy money. When more money is introduced to a market than would be there otherwise prices go up. They answered by throwing more money in the forms of cheap loans, grants, scholarships, GI bills, ect. Prices go up even more. This cycle has been continuing for 70 years. You are about to go to college at a time when it's never been more expensive to do so and the value of most degrees have been so low. No politician can fix that, it's going to take a huge bubble burst and market correction.

I would recommend not going. There areonline degrees now that are fully accredited, here's an example. If I had to do it over again I would join the National Guard, and while your serving you can take these CLEP tests, which if you pass count as a college credit. Most colleges accept some of these credits, there are 3 that will give you a degree almost exclusively based on CLEP credits. And they are free for active serving armed forces (something like $200 a test otherwise). Google and Facebook and other tech companies sponsor something called nanodegrees, worth looking into. Trade school is looked down upon but today it's the more economically sound option.

Whatever you do I recommend the book Worthless by Aaron Clarey. I wish I read it when I was your age.

Sorry for not really answering your question, but good luck to ya.

Not if you're studying something valuable in STEM. There's too many bullshitters selling bullshit courses on campuses.

Why do you want tenure? I'm sure you have good reasons, but couldn't morally be tenured, if I wasn't 100% sure that I was teaching something valuable. If I didn't feel that what I am teaching, that is something people actually need and want despite my tenure. Just like if I were a drug dealer or a slaver, then my success would be dependent on people suffering from it.

What are you studying?

The books I am paraphrasing from are Antifragile, by Nassim Nicholas Taleb and Worthless, by Aaron Clarey.

Come now, I'm trying to engage you. Like this entire time.

ALL I SAID WAS HAVE SKILLS THAT CAN MAKE YOU STABLE AND HELP YOU HAVE A DAYJOB SO YOU CAN WORK ON YOUR DREAMS IN STABILITY.

Like I said that four times or something like that.

Over and over again.

Have skills people will pay for. Make sure you don't hate those skills but you don't have to have a passion for it. Work on your fun thing. It's unlikely to be the next Beatles because there's not enough brain space, but if it makes you happy, hobbies are great!

Somehow that came out

>NOBODY SHOULD EVER BE HAPPY. ALL ARE SLAVES!

Or something. I'm not sure how I could be more clear.
