By tracking student movements and regulating faculty to standards of politica l correctness, they risk socializing young people to the methods of high-tech au thoritarian state control.

Later, when they find out they'll never get a job with that EXPENSIVE pig... sheepskin... that pays down that diploma, and they end up order picking at an Amazon warehouse with a tracking wristband, or telemarketing the refinancing of student loans ... to other ex-student suckers like themselves, at least they'll know how to get food stamps.£ Rr References 1. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/are-universities-morphing-into-orwellian-states-2020-01-27 2. https://scontent-sjc3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/s960x960/83331110_10157073394663450_8821564742368755712_o.jpg?_nc_cat=105&_nc_ohc=tnU3BOAUp3UAX8tiSIk&_nc_ht=scontent-sjc3-1.xx&oh=de5da67ac173d010d3365dfe5691641b&oe=5ED128A8
