However much disdain you have for college

I’m in the UK where the previous government had an ideological urge to get 50% of school-leavers into university and the only way it could do that was massive dilution. The Russell Group are still quality but the gap between them and the ex-poly degree mills is vast. Attending one of those indeed is not really an education despite the certification.
