College Presidents Have Problems With Obama's Message On Tuition n.pr/w7Wge3

Interest is fine, the way it is ran these days however is not. We all know what's going on. One way to fix it is for the individual companies themselves to stand up and take a look at an applicant farther then its base on college alone. Online, offline its not what hoops you jump through that make you qualified to be the best person in a position. It is actually being the best person for that position. Corporations should take a look farther and develop different techniques to hire people (possibly even saving themselves money in the process) rather then what is written down on a piece of paper.
New interviewing techniques would have to be developed. With the internet, life experience, and self studying we have the ability to research and become experts in nearly any field we so choose. Of course all of those laws would also have to be fair and balanced.
We need a reemergence of Unions to protect the people in this country. The government seems to be protecting the corporations, Unions protect the people.
All in all I would much rather have government funded colleges that people can actually afford to go to without banks as the middle man. The base price tag can be brought down as well with a reasonable approach to textbooks, such as using ebooks.
From the Social Network movie: "Everyone at Harvard is inventing something. Harvard undergraduates believe that inventing a job is better than finding a job."
