I heard a call on the Dave Ramsey show the other day, a person called with $120k worth of student loan debt from "a college that just got shut down", and she was making $36,000 with a degree in Info Sys Security - because she didn't actually learn anything in the school and can't get a job doing anything IT-related because she's clueless. At no point along the way did she think "I'm paying a LOT of money but not learning anything, I should probably not go further into debt to go to this crappy school."
$120k for a worthless 4-year degree!!
Oh jeez, I'm glad these types of schools are being shutdown.
