Unfortunately physical metaphors about “bursting bubbles” don’t correspond to reality. People at 18 and their parents are scared to DEATH of failure. They WILL pay exorbitant tuition at any decent university

Almost all endowment increases come from donors and stock market gains. Harvard spends 5+ percent of their endowment per year. It would be trivial if it was happening to prevent tuition going to endowments since tuition is a small fraction

Pretty much. Tuition is set by willingness to pay. Most large endowments are actually thousand of small endowments that are earmarked for certain things. Also many of the largest endowments are actually used for giving large financial aid.

Unlike you I remember being in school. Almost any activity like that was thought of as a joke by kids and a waste of time. People endure actually hardships all over the world and come out fine. A couple hours of sitting in a corner won’t hu

How would that work? lol. There are thousands of weirdos and anti-social kids for every one school shooter. Plus if a disproportionate number of black kids are investigated it would be legally challenged.

But the scores that psychologists use in their studies weren’t collected from people who trained for the IQ exam. Almost impossible to find out what they ask on exams since they are sold directly to practitioners.

Maybe but that’s not where the big money is made. They’d go broke hoping for small movements off low effort journalism. If they got major pieces in the WSJ that could really move the market. But a total scam short seller won’t get that kind
