Forget “because daddy donated…”. The degree isn’t about being smart or not, it’s about being able to play in the system. The schools are for profit businesses. They know they can graduate a certain % of idiots and not hurt thier profit line. So they do. And the number is disturbingly high. You don’t need to donate money to get a degree as an idiot.

Stop pretending like the US is the only country in the world.

None of the schools in the EU are for profit. Most of the world does not have for profit schools. Degrees actually mean things. You can’t buy yourself one.

  I’m responding to a comment talking about donating to get a degree. That pretty much narrows it down to for profit universities, doesn’t it?
