They are? Yeah, that's utter bullshit.

Don't know how long it's been but there's a lot of articles popping up within the last couple years on it, saying that various universities rejected credits for what was essentially the same exactly class using the same book and the same curriculum.

Meanwhile I was seeing posts on reddit and other socials talking about how crowded university classrooms were getting, with someone showing a picture that showed how the room was too full to meet standards for fire evacuations if necessary. It's just absolutely nothing but greed at this point.

That's fucking ridiculous.

I don't know what my daughter is going to do when she's college age. She's 13 now. It's only going to get worse.
