Higher Education should be free or HEAVILY means-tested in the first place .

They certainly shouldn't be paying the horrendously high interest on them.

Yes, lecturers are allies in this whole debacle but many have stressed that they're not being paid whilst striking so the universities are actually profiting from their absence, and in the market that higher education now is,

How would they get a refund on their tuition though? The services were provided... students had a choice to drop out at any point if they didn't think they were getting their monies worth. Do schools even make specific promises?... I don't think they guarantee employment just vague stuff like "intellectual enrichment" and a "positive learning environment".
Probably could only sue if you took a course that didn't accomplish it's stated goals... kinda like how I signed up for a history course and it ended up being about saving the environment? Was required so I couldn't drop. |

Anyhoo, yes you can complain as you say you are paying for a service to attain a certain level of competency in a given subject via a variety of mediums... if that falls short you have a right to recourse clearly.

I agree with that to a degree (pun unintended). But judging by most dumpster level rants on the web these days, it doesn't seem college is doing whole lot for people's sense of self-worth or self-confidence, or even their intellect, if they're feeling they have to reduce their arguments down to the level of a 5 year old emotional logic to get their points across. So I think there is an argument to be made our education system is almost certainly broken...
I just don't think that getting refunds for all does anything to resolve the quality issues. I made sure I was educated about my education (ironic statement, I know) before getting too deep in and I had a 5-10 year plan and had very specific goals (including not having massive debt)... and if we find we aren't getting a great education, then maybe adjust the plan? I could transfer to a better school, but of course using that same logic, a lot of artisans sign up for very expensive programs... like design school, it's in the 6 digits here not including interest... Actually part of the argument against school grants/federally backed loans is that it's drastically lowered the quality of education in public schools (edit) and helped to raise the costs of and lower the standards of private as well... because if you can accept more students with financial aid, that's easy money... more likely to get them to agree to a higher tuition bill overall. If it were a conventional loan, the bank would be interested in their ability to afford pver the long-term... i.e. will a degree in Ancient Texts help you with your ability to repay or will it maybe be better to go with a second choice, like medical, etc? That would've been a bubble burst for some, but more informative for the student overall on their ability to handle repaying over the long-term... Last edited by Maru; 22-02-2018 at 09:24 PM. |
