Lost in the shuttering of ITT’s Lake Mary campus, along with the other 129 campuses nationwide, is the lesson of what happens when political puritanism overcomes economic pragmatism. With Corinthian Colleges down, ITT following suit, and several more headed into the dust bin of Obama’s genocide on for-profit career colleges, we are headed into systemic public post-high school education favoring free general survey courses to high-paying career competencies. Give me six months of tech or health science training over two to four years of associate or baccalaureate education and I’ll get you a higher standard of living every time. What a shame: 40,000 furloughed students would probably agree.
