This obvious issue that we all know about being posted in Wall Street Journal is new. The world is waking up. "No college wants to tackle the issue under the glare of gender politics," they say, because its the wrong side of gender politics from what we have determined is the prevailing narrative in academia and the colleges have no plan to do anything about it, even though they know its an issue

Colleges/ universities added over the years a number of arts/ humanities degrees.

They do not pay off. You rack up $120-200k debt for a degree which does not result in a six figures job.

Additionally title IX has created a hostile environment for men at colleges.

Men are logical and choose trades, IT or in colleges STEM. The first two come with no debt, starting to earn early and these jobs are in demand.

I applaud men for making rational decisions.

As I’ve been saying for years and years, traditional college is dead, only a slim few make it to the top. The best route to go is trade school.

A regular construction laborer earns as much as a biochemistry PhD where I live. Why even bother spending all these years in university? I even saw an engineering position that paid less per hour than the guy who cleans up in construction sites.
