0:00.0 | Well, here we are almost a quarter way through the 23rd century, and I want to talk about life after college. |
0:06.0 | Hi, everybody. I'm Bill Whittle here with Steve Green and Scott Ott, and this shows made possible by the members at Bill Whittle.com. |
0:11.2 | Guys, when I talk about talking about life after college, you probably think I meant what happened to us or what happens to somebody else when they finish college. |
0:19.8 | That's not what I'm talking about. |
0:21.2 | I'm talking about a future, which I think is going to be in the near future, |

1:22.9 | very likely in a very small group of the very best people in the world. But when Harvard has, you know, safe spaces and coloring books and puppies and stuff for people who get upset, |
1:35.1 | I really think that universities have lost all of their credibility, |
1:41.4 | and I don't see any way for them to get it back. |
1:46.4 | So, Steve, |
1:52.3 | you used to have to go to college because that's where the smart people were and that's where the education was and so you would go there to get that. You're not getting an education |
