I'm not sure that's a fair criticism of Hamburger U. Isn't it really just a training facility for McDonald's managers? As far as I know a) it has no pretensions of being a real college and b) McDonald's is a wildly successful global corporation, they must be doing <i>something</i> right.

I heard from a non-Mormon who went to BYU and said the intolerance there was so awful, that students would walk up to you and ask, "Are you a Mormon?" and if you said no, they would just walk away like you didn't even exist.

I'm from San Diego, and somehow I knew I'd find SDSU in this list!

Not very empirical but immensely entertaining. The piece on Trump University alone is worth the read.

The quality of the quotes goes way up for Drexel and Harvey Mudd -- I wonder if some alumni on the <i>Radar</i> staff couldn't resist a little articulate bashing of their alma mater.

I don't see what the author has against the book Jews Without Money. It's one of the most important pieces of American literature.

Has anyone heard anything positive or negative about Penn Foster College?
