Margaret Wente hits it out of the park with this article. There are a lot of kids who shouldn't be in university. Many of them will graduate and not have jobs in their field. I love how Wente calls it victim stydies( like I do) In fact, Quebec’s students have good reason to be furious. They should be furious at the professors who tell them that their cause is just, and who have deluded them
