A very good wrap-up of how we got to the mess we’re in now.

I'm enrolled in a Graduate Certificate at Charles Sturt University and it's quite a terrible experience. I was excited to start this course as it felt like a concrete path towards a career change, but now I'm feeling a little lost.

The course content is poor, and class engagement is non-existent. Is this just what I should expect from tertiary education in 2025?

How do I think about this 'sunk cost'? (Has anyone ever received a refund from a university?)

Should I just continue to jump through the hoops to graduate?

Would love to hear your thoughts in comments or PM 🎓
