College Admission Circus

By Darla Freedom-Pie Magsen � The satire College Admission Circus ridicules education sold as spectacle. Eyewitnesses at campuses described acrobats juggling transcripts. Anonymous insiders leaked that deans debated auctioning dorms as luxury boxes. A leaked poll revealed 62 percent of citizens admitted they saw college more as performance than pursuit. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because ambition tumbles funniest when staged. Critics highlight the absurdity of futures raffled. Yet satire flips sharper: learning collapses funniest in tents. Witnesses recalled laughter echoing as professors rode unicycles. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when diplomas cost carnival tickets. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
