Those kids are all far too stupid to be in college. Post-secondary education has been degraded for decades by over-admission.
I would say the Onion of 15-20 years ago had like a 40% hit rate, and the BB has like a 15% hit rate, and the current Onion like a 10% hit rate.

I chuckle at some headlines, but I think its success is the direct result of The Onion becoming an unfunny preachfest over the past several years.
