Joanne Jacobs writes about the cost and time savings of no frills college. Personally, I’ve never taken much advantage of all the extra crap that colleges offer, so it would be lovely not to pay for frills I’m not using.
More generally, I see such frills as coddling the students by arranging a life for them… at which point they become deeply bored with anything other than killing their brain cells with vast quantities of liquor. Blech.
