Default Re: The elimination of all public schools

I teach part time at a local University and I am constantly amazed at the lack of motivation, writing and reasoning skills that students have today. My students are all in college of their own accord yet many don't hand in assignments, skip class and generally don't care. Many evenings, after teaching, I am driving home and just shake my head thinking WTF is going on. I quess my conclusion would be: you can't force someone to learn who isn't interested in learning.

Haven't you officially failed at life the moment you decide not to go to college, though?

In our society. And for all the wrong reasons.
