Count me in! J Though I must admit I was more bemused than riled up. He seems to operate in a rather odd set of understandings and data. Plus his reasoning would, no doubt, fail to pass muster in his own classes. That statement that we graduate with loans sometimes approaching 100K being an example- Is that kind of debt common now for PhDs? It seemed to me that he was reasoning using a rather extreme example. (Or. . . Is it my dataset that is skewed? I did graduate in 1984.) Tim From: Christopher D.
