This College Says: Get a Job -- or Get Your Money Back
"Lansing Community College in Lansing, Mich., offers six-week training courses for students interested in careers as call-center specialists, pharmacy technicians, quality inspectors and computer machinists.
The cost for each of these certificate programs is is $2,400, but a special money-back guarantee program is being offered to 61 students.
If they attend every class, complete every assignment, and make a good-faith effort to get a job, if they are unable to find employment within a year after graduation, they'll get their tuition back."
This seems to be a safe bet from the LCC perspective:
The "attend every class, complete every assignment, and make a good-faith effort to get a job" isn't likely the norm for ANY LCC student who can't get a job.
It's sorta the key to success without worrying about getting your money back.
Like, isn't that the reason a kid goes to college..to get a job?
But it sure sounds like an excellent idea for most major universities.
If this was the rule, imagine how many communications or black studies programs would shut down right NOW.
