    Northwest Woodsman: Can’t help but comment on this! I’ll bet that a large number of those accepted are diversity enrollments that are in no way prepared for college level studies. That being said, college classes have been so dumbed down to accommodate those unprepared and unable to succeed they are irrelevant. Why not save time and money and just grant immediate degrees to those who enrolled. Better than spending four years wasting time and going into debt.
