1. Is there another video like this one that’s not so sarcaustic? I’m not sure the people it’s meant to mock will fully understand it.

2. That is good. It shows all of the things to be found on American campuses which are irrelevant to higher (or any level) of education. No lecture theatres, libraries, or indeed students were shown.
   Rather a double edge, though. The band had not received much value for whatever money they had spent on education.

3. My favourite part of the video is when he mocks the hypocrisy of progressive students. They want speech codes and safe spaces for themselves but, in my experience, rarely hold themselves up to those standards. Foul mouthed hissy fits are the norm. Politeness is never given to those who question them or refuse to conform to progressive ideas. Their refusal to see their own intolerance is almost comical. Silly, naive, pampered Eloi.

4. Except the Eloi were nice.

5. I would not expect modern students to wonder about why their fees are high. Usually they know how much the university President is paid, and that answers their question before it is formed. Rather, , students typically want government relief; demand it, in fact. This doesn’t work for US privately funded colleges, but in Canada most universities are state-run.

6. In the state run Canadian system a student can come away with a four year degree and 40 thousand dollars in student loan debt. NOTHING IS EVER FREE. they can spend four years in school and still come out with, as Rush Limbaugh says, a mind full of mush.

7. They were only nice because they didn’t realize they were oppressed. Higher education taught them advanced victimology studies. Now they’re angry, self righteous Eloi. 🙂
