You are quoting just so many reasons for going to a less well known $pay school where the school is interested in earning money from tuition fees and does not treat students as cattle that must pass the labyrinth to get the prize mark burned into their hide. That kind of school really pays attention to what the students say about their *teachers* (and I do not say professors on purpose here).
