Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

I was on campus today and had an intersting conversation.

    Maybe I'm the only one here who majored in something other than gender studies or similar liberal arts bullshit, but did you ever actually have a socialist professor? Liberal sure, but no economics or poli-sci class I ever took was taught by anyone who espoused beliefs that even resembled socialism. The only socialists I saw were the fucktard students with bandannas around their face in Red Square.

    Sure many of them would claim that they were only liberal then but how many are feelin' the Bern now?

    Free tuition doesn't mean that the expertise teaching those students is also free.

    I haven't a clue. My guess would be that most of them are for Hillary.

    My guess is that if I was a HS kid now looking at going somewhere for college that I may have chosen to go elsewhere from UW at this point

    Not free. Paid for by someone else.

    I'm not opposed to the model, in fact the Khan academy is effective and a screaming deal. I'm just opposed to the mindset that just because one doesn't pay for something, it's actually free. Someone is usually footing the bill.
