Schools these days remind  me of line from " Good Will Hunting". You dropped a 150k on an education you could have got with $1.50 in late charges at local library!  A friend of mine had a kid going into high school last year and told his mother he needed a calculator for math class..she asked him," are you taking algebra,  calculus,  trig, ?"..he replied," no, it's for multiplication tables"..WTF?  He was going into 9th grade and didn't know basics in math yet...
