    1. @Peter Bills at 18? They can’t even drink yet at 18. They call you young adults so if the time comes they can send you off to war.

    2. how will all the far left loon liberal college professors indoctrinate and corrupt the youth if the universities remain closed?

  1. They should all pull out and start their college terms next year. I know that’s what I’d do.

    1. @Lost Hero what resume? It’s college. Does taking a year off post high school graduation seem like a new concept to you?

    2. @Lost Hero point me to a person and i could find a reason why they are not qualified for any job.

    3. @incipidsigninsetup Do you really think that employers don’t look at transcripts? Not all these students are new. There are continuing students also. Are those concepts too much for you?

    4. @▂▃Zaggnut▃▂ Employers look at transcripts, and having to take online classes is NOT a good reason for a gap. They are looking for qualities that make a good employee. If you wimp out due to something like this, it will follow you. I know because I have evaluated a LOT of resumes. Good jobs weed people out for reasons like this. Even part time is better than no classes, and there is no good reason to stop.

  2. The colleges Greed is going to Screw Themselves…My dayughter and all her friends are taking the year off, she finished her year on the computer and says the learning isnt the same!

  3. If the tuition & fees only “cover a small part” of your costs than find it elsewhere dummy, like a less vulnerable pool of capital. #FollowTheRuhle

    1. Peter Bills whatever rate leaves the billionaire and his dynasty w enough money to feel important

    2. @Peter Bills If they move to Nevada, Texas or Colorado, they will have to pay out of state tuition or live in the state for a year without going to school. Both options are more expensive. If they come to school in CA after living in those states, they will also have to pay out of state tuition.

    3. @Elia Fuimaono I’m all for free education and an end to corporate welfare. I just don’t like misinformation. Online classes have been around for years, and the price is always the same. They are just temporarily expanding that to serve the students and everyone is losing their nuts over it.

    4. Lost Hero yes I think the research shows online learning is exploited by cost-cutters b/c some students do prefer online, but the results haven’t kept up w the competing countries

  4. Colleges and universities sell lectures, not a “college experience”. …they won’t budge unless people refuse to attend or find a different way. ….MIT offers their lectures for free, btw.

    My YouTube channel has college content condensed in a quick way, too.

    1. MIT does NOT offer credit for those courses for free however. MOOCS have been around for years. They don’t get you a degree and you can’t use them on a resume. Libraries are free too. So what.

    2. “unless people refuse to attend or find a different way” I have 3 degrees and am now an electrician. Elite academic people are obnoxious.

    3. @Peter Bills And some people can’t decide what to do for a living without wasting money. I have three degrees, and retired before 60. I guess I chose better degrees than you.

    4. @Lost Hero Not willing to disclose my age, but recognition for the old man is in order. Are you suggesting a qualification that divides labor goups according to their education or aptitudes. Maybe it would be wiser to engage that endeavor at an earlier stage of life. Adolescence or in the womb?

  5. Servers and connections cost a lot, but there’s no way they cost enough for you to keep charging children the same amount as a normal in-person curriculum. I might be understanding the situation wrong, but you have private funding, government funding, and NCAA funding (which is substantial for all colleges that don’t want to pay players). I don’t see why banks and very large corporations/institutions don’t save a lump of their profits instead of putting it to constantly upgrading themselves. A lot of business wouldn’t need a bailout if they’d just played their money as if they had it and not as if they would just pay it forward in the future. (I could be completely wrong though)

    1. All this infrastructure has been in place for years, as well as the lesson plan, or a close derivative of its delivery from other classes. This is a system that is refusing to make cuts. California Democrats have no answers because they can’t make hard choices. Can we get a needle program or free drugs started in SF? F the students.

  6. Much of Europe has no fees. Tuition is free. They realise that the way to grow your nation is to develop the future. Withdrawing that barrier makes it better. A no brainer

    1. “the way to grow your nation” Until you find out those govt services are crap, and your economy is not growing as a result of the taxation.

    2. @Peter Bills Oh sure. Like the social democracies of the EU with their glittering infrastructures and first world healthcare systems? Compare with us and the US. Night and day

    3. @LunarGypsy1978 God I know. Jonathon Sakur did a delightful interview with Bryan Cox the Scottish actor. He was very working class and lamented a return to social democracy. Where you attended UNI free and got a grant. Both agreed that is a key reason so few working class kids are actors. Catch it on iPlayer it’s lovely. Did the same in Scotland in the 70s.

    4. @Praxis Alba yet they seem to have a better education than America..how strange. Better in both science and math

  7. My daughter has been attending virtual classes and it is less than optimal. I don’t know what she has decided for the fall, but paying full tuition for virtual classes is wrong. What about all the labs that are mandatory in the sciences, which is her major. They are not offering full service and should not be charging full service prices.They are saving a fortune on maintenance for the campuses and loosing money on the parking. Yeah put it on the young to bail out your bloated system. Welcome to Cal

    1. Studies show that online classes are just as effective as face to face. Online classes have been around for YEARS and they have never been discounted. It is usually the fact that students have to be self motivated in an online class that causes the problem. Facts are stubborn things. You should try using them instead of your hateful propaganda. Oh, and your daughter will be able to take the labs and she isn’t being charged for them. With your attitude, no wonder your daughter isn’t succeeding. She is probably lazy like you.

    1. The Cal State system is one of the least expensive and the best in the country. I agree that it should be free, but it isn’t. The chancellor can’t just wave a wand and make it so.

    2. @Lost Hero Every 50 years or so we completely change and upgrade the education system in usa. It is high time for another one. It’s coming…💜😎💜

  8. Content aside, a 37 second video with a 30 second self promo is not why I subscribed, MSNBC.

  9. I teach to graduate students part time , but I am not going because it’s too much work for too little money.

  10. Now you know how school will be free for everyone. Online and you will pay this guy just like comcast.

  11. This is how out of touch university administrators are. Time to clean the swamp creatures out of public education institutions.

  12. Tuition and mandatory fees with less overhead thanx to the wonderful internet .. Colleges are a scam , the higher you go into the college pyramid scam netwrokj what you find are MSNBCannibals at the top laughing at all the students and fondling hot college girls

  13. There’s no getting around it. It costs less to deliver classes online. You don’t need to build and maintain facilities. Fees should be adjusted accordingly. Whatever percentage students are paying of the overall cost of their education should stay the same, but that amount should be less since the cost of delivering that education is less.

  14. kind of wonder what the paying students have to say about funding a quasi quality kind of education and how that sounds to a high ranking employer when they ask, would like to see your papers and the student lists a long resume of video sessions instead of an actual facility, might not be a bad long term investment to get a poll on how potential employers feel about this shift before you spend one hundred grand you dont really have a stich in time saves 9
