rant

college as an institutional need is fucked up.

i learned today that my women's studies professor, who has a prestigious phd, makes a measly fifty to sixty thousand dollars a year; while the football coach of the school makes one-point-two million dollars a year. she went to college for at least eight years, he studied to football videos. gah!

now, i'm only in my first year in college and am fairly naive to life in general. but being told i need to go to college just isn't making sense to me right at the moment.

i'm also being told that there will be an increase of tuition within a few semesters, to support the athletics department. the athletic department that gives away scholarships. the athletic department that hasn't sold out a game in quite some time. the athletic department needs to take some business budgeting classes.

college has a bleak out look for me.
