It’s not that I’m condoning bank robbery (people tend to get hurt). Plus, you know, it’s wrong. But aside from the danger, the stupidity and the blatant law-breaking, there’s a tiny part of me that’s glad for this excellent illustration of how impossible tuition rates have become. Maybe we’ll all get lucky and the Powers That Be will take note and change their tuition-jacking ways. It’s funny that when schools do it, it’s called “tuition increase”, but when students do it, it’s called “bank robbery”. Perhaps the students lack the requisite authority to rob people blind.

Ha, but we’ll never see the related headline that we should see: “Trustees rob students to pay for football team.”

Oh, if only. It would be a happy day if Michael Moore ever decided to expose the seamy underbelly of higher education. Probably not as high on his To Do List as the health industry.
