Hey Carl -
The next time you have a Conservative Commentator on your show, can you ask a question for me? "If the Bush Tax cuts were supposed to create a strong and vibrant economy..... What happened?"

I find it interesting that sports in these institutions moves money away from the real education of the students. Try tutoring one of the sports players in science or math and tell me how they recruit the 'best and brightest'.
It is ridiculous that so much money is wasted on sports.
My experiences at PSU and SOU were mixed. SOU genuinely helps the student through financial aid and with advising. PSU, on the other hand, has massive delays in any advising or financial aid processing. I am looking to go for a Masters degree, but I'm saving up my pennies to pay cash as I go so I don't have to go through their nightmarish system.
