No, it is a responsibility of a citizen to be financially educated. If they default due to their own choices, it is not the fault of the university for providing what they asked for.

I feel that universities should only offer degrees that are necessary to getting employment. I.e degrees that won’t be recognised by employers should be abolished as it’s wasting student’s time and money.

Yes, but degrees that don't have a chance of offering an income or meaningful impact on society like gender studies should not be eligible for student loans.

No, and higher education should be free for everyone for their first degree as long as an individual fails no more than one unit

 @9R3B9J6answered…6mos6MO

Yes, providing that the degree was priced in a way that was unfair concerning the amount of income expected from pathways from the degree not equating to how much the degree costs.
