These 3 videos should seriously be featured on youtube's homepage.

[JaySwaggg]

i watch this video once a week.

[zenboyification]

In a "classroom" of 400 students the only individuals who stand a chance to learn are autodidactic--so why spend the $400.00 per credit hour?

[MrSk8today]

its a shame theres only 1800 views

[InfoPoet]

woops.. i guess you addressed that.. yeah it sucks that it's only a few people that find the good teacher and take all their classes

[InfoPoet]

I agree with almost completely... every now and again though you would get a GOOD teacher

This video highlights the sickness of the "college industrial complex."

[biped19]

I received a better education at my community college, where the state actually paid me to attend. Subsequently I had to move on to a four year university (and used the money to pay for it). Even though my senior college had small classes it still exhibited many of the traits of a large university.

[disturbedfrog]

im finishing up my science degree in canada and ive had these views for many years. most of my teachers in the intro classes but once you get higher up they are decent

[sk4t3b0arder]
