"Americans are flooding the government with appeals to have their student loans forgiven on the grounds that schools deceived them with false promises of a well-paying career—part of a growing protest against years of surging college costs."

I've never seen a university that promised a guaranteed job or career. It has always been a risk and it's ludicrous that students would attempt to make this case.

Have we sunk this low with personal responsibility? This victim mentality needs to stop if we are going to progress as a society.

I think the problem I have is that not only do some students major in things like medieval history (which will not likely get you a well-paying job, let alone a career), but many think that just getting a piece of paper will get you a job.

It might help you get your foot in the door, but you still need to put the work into it.

College isn't for everyone. Some people would be better suited with a trade.
