pros and cons of for profit education

[sanantone]

I started the thread. I have no preconceptions about what this thread should be. There was never any intention for it to remain on or diverge from for-profit education. It's the internet. Threads diverge and get hijacked. People get political. I read interesting points of view and hopefully I won't reveal anything about my point of view. I read the discussions to learn.

From time to time I post links without commentary just to see what will happen.

My opinion stands. Bringing politics into a discussion is tacky and should remain in the off-topic forum. Politics and religion usually lead to arguments. City-data and Degree Info have separate sub-forums for politics. City-Data either locks threads that turn to national politics in unrelated forums or move the threads to the politics forum.

I've been a member of several fora. Moderators normally take action when threads are hijacked. It happens, but it's bad netiquette.
