I'm not going to deny there are massive problems in higher ed, because there certainly are, and it's not as good a deal as we pretend it is. But that website is a right wing paranoia conspiracy site (see the "moral crisis" or (seriously!) "environment" sections). So take everything it says with a barrel of salt.
