Not giving value for money is the main reason people are turning their backs on it. Wokeness falls under that heading.

Even on Study.com and Straighterline, you get some really bonkers stuff in some of the lessons. Brick and mortar college is way worse. No one is going to work their way through school to be told things they know aren't true so they can get a job that they could probably get from a trade school anyway.
Study.com - 177 CR. TESU - 39 CR. Middle Georgia State University - 15 CR. Sonoran Desert Institute - 42 CR. COSC - 6 CR. Excelsior - 6 CR. CLEP - 6 CR. Sophia - 14 CR. TEEX - 2 CR. Shmoop - 18 CR. NFA - 4 CR. The Institutes - 2 CR. FEMA - 20ish


BA in History/English from TESU. 
BA in Communications from TESU. AS in Firearms Technology from SDI.
