Be curious to see a comparison with more traditional colleges that also fail "to provide adequate job training for students." I very seriously doubt that shortcoming is limited to the ITT's of the world.
I agree. In my senior year of college, we got a grad student from a nearby, fairly well-known university. He had supposedly gotten a Comp Sci degree and was wanting to work on his Masters. His lack of knowledge was appalling. I believe he failed all of his classes in the first semester. By his second semester, he was taking freshman-level courses. I always wondered what happened to him.
I've also dealt with it in the real world. I've worked with people who have degrees and years of "experience" who are pretty much useless.
