I really don't have an argument, other than to apparently counter yours. You seem to believe that there should be a "use it or don't come" requirement for college students. I just don't see what you have against someone getting an education, whether they use it directly in their chosen profession or as a parent. I don't see the difference.

Well of course you wouldn't learn anything at KU.
You can learn for the sake of learning on your own. You can also do it at colleges with open admissions. But if you're going to a semi-competitive school with limited spots and your full intention is to work in that field for as long as it takes you to get impregnated, you're not really intending to use your degree as anything more than a rung on the social ladder, or a quasi-dowry.
Those seeking out Mrs degrees also **** over other young women, because there is an implicit assumption of risk among their employers that they made need to train a replacement within two years because they never really had any intention of pursing a career, just a placeholder job. That makes the women who actually want to put in the work appear less valuable to prospective employers.
