Have these people gone crazy? Rallying for the for-profits? Are they being paid?

This rally put on by students who are supporting for-profits proves that the world is truly topsy-turvy, and not in some delightful way.

I have one word for this event: ludicrous.

I do not have a problem with for-profits, as long as they do not receive federal funding :-)
If they are so efficient at educating students for less, then a student should be able to afford "for-profit" education without taking out any loans :-)

I have a problem with for-profits, because they have a graduation rate of only about 50 percent. All the money that has been put into them should go to community colleges. People don't have to borrow at all to attend them. That's the way it should be. Its hard enough to get started when you graduate, without a student loan to add to your difficulties. It's true that you can't buy a house or afford to have children if you have student loan payments which are too high.
