What I don?t understand about student loans is that if you went to a ?real? bank of real wxxxxers I don?t think that they would lend you any money for an archaeology course. How come The student loan company get away with using terms like loan surely this is predatory lending and really the student loan company is a loan shark. It used to be a subsidised loan now its not (wonder what the taliban think about that being muslins)
It seems to me that archaeologists by trying to make archaeology popular, encouraging things like communituty archaeology, museums are aiding to the future dept situation of students by encouraging them to do archaeology. I think that it should be broadcast which archaeology student has the biggest student loan and no job in archaeology. Maybe for every archaeology graduate that does not go on to become an archaeologist the academics should pay a fine. We should name and shame them. Which academics lectures students are least likely to ever get a job in archaeology?
The truth is geodan that All student archaeology courses NEVER had any intention of students going on to become archaeologists even in the good times:

The truth is anybody going into commercial archaeology is an embarrassment to them. In more recent times the bullshit has become applied even thicker- this must have been written by the academics and the student loan company
