3 Potential solutions for America’s university problem

  I don’t doubt you’ve seen all the discourse over the years about The higher education system in America. From being ridiculously overpriced, to not really being valued anymore in the job market, to churning out young graduates with useless degrees in pseudo-sciences. Some of those problems are easier to fix than others, and some of the more deeply ingrained problems tend to not be seen as problems. I thought up a few possible solutions on a whim a few days ago and thought I’d share them with the world. These are three ways to fix the American university system. So from least to most extreme, here are my ideas: Only pay if you get employed in that field My first and least extreme of these ideas is fairly simple.

On Infinity Nikki, it's Flaws, and the Space it Fills

Game review Good games for girls aren’t just few and far between, they’re practically non-existent.

Welcomes and Introductions!

          Greetings and salutations my wayward friends, and welcome to my tiny corner of the internet. I decided to start up this Blog in an endeavor to make myself write more, and also because I often find myself feeling an INCREDIBLE NEED to write about something and figured maybe I could let the internet know whatever that thing is and maybe some people will enjoy the things I have to talk about. Before we get into the nitty-gritty I need to make some things known, I’m not limiting myself to certain specific topics on this blog, it’s really just going to be whatever I think of to write that week, that means one week it might be an in depth game review, the next week it might be a recounting of something that happened to me that week, or even sometime previously in my life, and maybe sometimes there will even be a short story or an excerpt from something I’m writing. So, without further ado, this is the Patchwork Menagerie. My name is Maurine Poulette, ...
