Just heard a lad on the local radio station saying that he got one C

Am I the only one that thinks "Poor bugger, you would be going to Uni
if it
was not for that C grade"?

Am I the only one wondering why universities are wasting precious
resources in running Media Studies courses?

Not only that, when there was political coercion to have large swathes
of the population benefit from a "university education", you had to have
courses for all the people not sufficiently academic to qualify for
traditional subjects.
