Don’t overlook how much of these schools are hotbeds of graft and corruption. Its quaint to insist this is a religious problem, but it overlooks how much boils down to simple profiteering.
If you actually scratch the surface of a lot of the Christian-pastiche college campuses - your Liberty Us and Bob Jones’s - you find campuses that exist to squeeze their student bodies for every last red cent. Yeah, the education is full of climate change denialism, young earth creationism, and phrenology. But even that skirts around how much of it just a big ole MLM, designed to incentivize recruitment and evangelization over any actual education. Like a job at Vector Marketing or Amway, 90% of what you’re doing is finding other people to rope into your bad decisions.
