The U of Phoenix has a location in the office building where I work.
I think the
top couple of floors maybe. When I get off work at the end the day, I
swear,
I see a goodly number of U of P "students" coming in for evening
classes,
and the group is about 99% black. All getting it paid for not by
themselves
I'm sure. I can't imagine that U of P provides much in the way of
education
from the look of most of the students coming in at this location. I
think
somebody's money is likely being swallowed up by U of P.

Thank you

I am glad that they are getting an education. It is something that we all
need.

Some prejudice sneaking in here, huh?

You haven't been on a college campus lately. Last time I was at City College
in Manhatten, most of the students were wearing jeans and did not look very
scholarly.

I am glad that these individuals are taking advantage of whatever programs
are being offered so that they can get an education. Something that will
benefit us all. A lot of people, especially minorities, have a great deal to
contribute. Unfortunately, too many didn't get an opportunity to learn in
school.

That post stank of it. How dare that troll assume all blacks take handouts.
I never have, and will try never to do so.

But a narrow-minded individual such as this would probably say, "You're a
credit to your race"

*rolling eyes*

That would be true of all individuals who are taking advantage of the chance
to get an education, regardless of who is paying.

Of course, what the racist people don't get is that the race to which these
people are a credit is the human race.

True, that - but he targeted us in particular, so I felt the need to speak
up.

Unfortunately, too many do not take advantage of the opportunity to learn in
school.

School is by definition an opportunity to learn. One can not go to school
and NOT be exposed to the opportunity to learn. They may not avail
themselves to the many opportunities that are presented to them, but the
opportunity is there.

It is awfully hard to take advantage of the opportunity to learn when kids
are running amuck around school, and you live in a shelter and don't have a
table to do homework on.
