I had a professor once complain that the United States' university system no longer encourages critical thinking nor promotes actual higher education. It (the U.S. university System) has simply become a factory (her opinion).

Hmm, I always found that an interesting observation and I have been recently reminded of her statement.

Yeah! So did she. You'd believe it if you knew her. I was just reminded of her, that's all.
