I can see that, if you think that just getting the paper is enough. It is contrary to the idea that university was a place to learn how to learn and gain knowledge that could then be used in your life. Undergrads didn't lead to employment, they led to further career or education opportunities. If all a diploma mill generates is slips of paper without the student gaining knowledge, even $4000 is a gross overpayment.

it's not that getting the piece of paper is enough as much as it has become a minimum standard for gaining jobs that frankly-shouldn't require it. The guy that has "some college experience" looks the same in the eyes of the employer as the guy who never went to college, because they don't have a piece of paper.
