nowadays you can get in even if illiterate -- as long as you can play a sport well or maybe some artistic stuff too.

'artists' have lower admission standards just like athletes. a big joke, imo. the whole point is to be an institution of higher education, not a minor league sports affiliate for 3 or 4 major sports, depending on how you count.

i've seen athletes at even a tiny college get special treatment. that's why they are mostly comm majors, phys ed, and liberal arts majors. at least with one of those you can get a steady job.. although the pay for a teach doesn't warrant the expense of college.

you are actually make less money than you would working a job that doesn't require a 4-year education expense -- even if you make abit more per year... ~50k to start you life is hundreds of K's by the time you retire (TVM).

the education system in america is a bit of a joke for the last generation or so and getting easier. it's not just relegated to k-12. i went back after my mba for something and there was extra credit in some of the classes, lol... in college. that shouldn't even be allowed in high school. bunch of babies here.
