Thank you, Lindsey.  Having read that, I was admittedly shocked.

While the fact that many students have been ill prepared for college has been known, one might think supporting the community college rather than abolishing it would have been sensible.  But that's retrospect.

It's bad enough the DeVrys and Phoenixes sucked up most of the financial aid, but these not-remedial courses come at regular tuition rates. In my distress I failed to notice whether students even get college credits for them. 

Zero level indeed.  It looks like they can't even adequately hide the business model of education anymore.
