Exactly but when people are critical of student loan forgiveness know nothing of the qualifications, it's noticeable.

So Alpha Chi had a sinkhole in their house :eek: Luckily sisterhood and pref were done at the house but that's crazy!

They used Gamma Phi Beta’s house next door for all of their parties. The Alpha Chi Omega women weee troopers who rapidly made the best of a fluke situation without skipping a beat. ❤️

There is a thread around somewhere with sororities that had building issues during recruitment…

It’s crazy how many there were :(

I doubt these students are taking out loans🙄your statement was ridiculous. Please educate yourself on who is getting their loans forgiven, sheesh.

I see where honeychile is coming from to a degree. I get that bad things happen to good people, but if you majored in some bullshit, and then want your loans written off because you can’t find a job, then that’s your fault. It’s not my fault you majored in some bullshit like glass blowing. Tax payers shouldn’t have to foot the bill for dumbasses who majored in some lightweight hobby shit they enjoy that isn’t going to make money.

Most of those that have loans that are being forgiven have already paid back what they borrowed and then some. It’s not like they just took loans out and didn’t pay them back (like many of the people in congress that took out PPP loans during covid). The interest rates and compounding interest makes it almost impossible to pay back some school loans. Many teachers, nurses and other civil servants have benefited from this program. I would think that we, the people, would want to help educators and those in other professions that don’t make a large amount but are very needed in our society? Or maybe I am just not that selfish��*♀️

I agree with paying back what’s owed. But do you think some dude who majored in glass blowing in college with a minor in communications, then goes on to borrow more money with a masters at the University of Phoenix in some more bullshit, you think he should get his loans forgiven?

Edit to add: Add a PhD from the University of Phoenix to his bill too. You think his loans should be forgiven because he’s working at KFC as a shift leader with a PhD from the University of Phoenix?

Phrozen is right. I actually know of several people who didn't need student loans but took them out to finance fancy on-campus or other apartments or something else that their parents wouldn't, then haven't been able to get jobs or more likely, weren't trying too hard. Thinking back, most were liberal arts majors. Anyone who thinks that these loans can only be used for tuition is mistaken.

We see it all at colleges.

A lot of people major in education which isn’t bullshit, but teachers are way underpaid in this country. We pay entertainers and athletes more money than educators. Speaking of bullshit, if that isn’t bullshit, then I don’t know what is. I know teachers working multiple jobs so they can pay their student loans back. Loan forgiveness for teachers doesn’t mean they don’t have to pay them back at all. They have to pay them back up to a point. Some educators can’t afford that.

We have a huge problem with the haves and have nots in this country. This not only means getting an education, but healthcare is an added financial problem too. No reason somebody who has health issues or wants to get an education should be shut out for lack of funds. Now that’s what I call bullshit.

A friend of mine and her husband worked at the school Phrozen Sands mentioned, University of Phoenix. According to her, if you or your spouse worked there, and you wanted to get an education there, you could go for free. She was getting her MBA there, but since they never had an actual wedding, she still took out a $20,000 student loan to pay for the wedding. They had already been married two years, but she still wanted a wedding. Long story short, she got the money, applied it all to their wedding, although they were already married. Lasted two more years after the wedding, then divorced, now she’s still stuck paying for the student loan she used for her wedding. Her loans were written off by the loan forgiveness program. So basically the tax payer paid for her wedding.

FACTS!

I agree. I was talking about folks who major in some shit that isn’t going to pay the bills, but want a free handout from other people to cover the cost for their dumb ass decision making. Pisses me off. That’s what I was talking about. I actually agree with what you posted.
Lmao!

Lmfao @ PB bringing welfare kids to the conversation. I feel you though.

Is there always going to a be someone that takes advantage of the system? Of course! Look again at all of the GOP politicians that got their PPP loans paid off, you think they needed the money? I believe a majority of these people are good, hardworking people. I know some of them myself and they made at least 10 years worth of payments and paid back more than they borrowed. So don’t lump all of these people together.
