All colleges and universities are "for profit."
The Voice of the Reich wants all education to be controlled by the state. You are programmed to oppose private institutions because they are not controlled by the state/party.
Another reason for profit colleges are a bad idea

you are a very stupid person
AND they will teach what the party approves of. No telling what private institutions might teach. Only the state can say what students are allowed to learn.

Some of the very worst doctors I have worked with came from Harvard
Not even in the same zip code as true.
The greatest return on educational investment, dollar for dollar are trade schools.
1. Automotive Repair
2. HVAC installation and Repair
3. Cosmetology/barbering
Traditional universities, public and private, are a poor investment for a plurality of students.
Just about half of those who receive a baccalaureate degree, regardless of institution, will never recoup the cost in greater salaries.
This is heavily driven by the major chosen. And some that screw students are not obvious.

A $53 BILLION endowment. An 8-figure salary, for the 9 top administrators. 7-figure salaries for tenured professors. But you're going to gaslight the rubes and tell us Harvard is "non-profit." Basically piss on our leg and tell us it's raining.
No, you were and are correct.
{College[FONT=var(--font-primary)] endowments, a collection of tax-exempt donations and investments used to advance an institution's mission, vary widely.

Yes I typed million but meant billion. The last thing Harvard is, is non profit.
Yep.
There is nothing special about a Harvard education. What they sell is "The Brand."
IF you are in the right strata, a gravy league degree will open doors. Not because you know more, but as proof you are of the elite.
But this is only true for the top 10% of Harvard students, based on wealth and family - not performance. The rest will do little better than those who attend state universities. Many will do worse.
If you're not a Bush, or a Gore, or a Heinz, or a Hilton, the gravy league won't be an automatic entry into the top.

shut up you stupid troll
The better trolls, the smarter ones, are assigned to Twitter and Facebook.
You were assigned here, at a backwater message board, well, for obvious reasons....
No, it really does not. In fact, Harvard is collecting and keeping money, not distributing it as profit, so the endowment is the opposite of profit.
No, actually, I said the faculty at Harvard does not get paid as much as they could in the for-profit sector. You seem to be having trouble reading.
How is this supposed profit making its way to the profit takers?

Call it want you like it's profit. If I make money and keep it in my pocket it's still profit. Distribution is not a condition of profit. Beyond that while I don't agree with student loan forgiveness I can't comprehend why kids put themselves in debt to pay for an "education" at an institution with $53 billion in it's pockets. You have to have a Harvard education to think that makes sense.
Palestinians have shown quite a desire for education. It is one of the few things that impress me about them. There are 11 colleges and universities in the Gaza Strip, and back when the borders were open, many of their young adults would go to schools outside Gaza.
