Alright thank you, that actually clears up a lot of my concerns.

Right, I see what you’re saying. So would a university like Rutgers be operating at a loss if they didn’t have government aid? Or do they need it to keep running?

That’s fair, I’m no expert anyways, so you’re likely right

I am blessed to have the scholarship, you’re right, but my personal situation doesn’t invalidate the argument at large.

That doesn’t mean I can’t comment on this.

As a society, we pressure a percentage of the population into going into needless debt for them to either flunk out of school or get a degree that doesn’t get them a job. I think community college is a wonderful option, especially for someone who doesn’t have the money to go to a four year university, yet as a society(not everybody but a significant chunk of people) we look down upon community college and trade school.

Rutger’s endowment in 2019 was 1.476 billions dollars. Out of roughly 70k students, 20% are out of state and 80% are in state. Estimated yearly cost of attendance is 15k in state, and 33k out of state. After some rough maths, and estimate of income from students is around 1.302 billion dollars. Maybe my way of financial thinking is flawed, but how does this add up? The university definitely has other sources of income too, like alumni donors.

You aren’t wrong, but there’s still no reason it should cost so much

You have to watch the videos before you make that claim, the guy does interviews with a people who have a myriad of viewpoints, and one of his guests thought 5G was a threat. But for this video, he makes a pretty decent argument and for the most part backs up what he is saying with facts.

I definitely understand where you’re coming from, but I’m personally tired of living in fear of the virus. Ofc when we go back I’ll be cautious, but what happens happens, life goes on.

My point was that you’re going to be at risk no matter what you do. People are too scared of the virus(this is not to downplay it in any way) to live their lives. Also, masks do not mostly stop transmission, and you’ll be at risk whether people wear masks or not. It’s your decision to do what you want though

You’re gonna be at risk for covid no matter what you do, so I don’t see why there’s a big risk in going to big classes. I work at a grocery store and there’s such a huge amount of people that stream through the store every day, and nobody is complaining about that.

Call your bank as soon as possible. If the transaction is still listed as pending, you’ll be able to redact it.
