Wtf college, stop lying and being terrible

Can we just crack on?
SO my friend is taking night classes and I discovered something remarkably stupid. She told me she was working on a project with a vegetable head, and I though HMMMMMM that sounds familiar. I asked her if she was given an ugly gondola picture with a blue tarp on it, and YES...yes she was. Turns out she's being taught the exact same material I was taught in middle school, which was over a decade ago, and they're using a CS2 manual.....wat.
So I email them, all cordial and adultlike RIGHT, to be like UMMM what are you doing, how are you charging money for this, and I get this little gem back:
"For your information, we are not using the textbook you referred to in your email. You are mistaken."
You sassy bastard. I have the syllubus right here in my hand, why are you lying directly to my face.
And I wrote a lot too, and I got that and another couple sassy sentences, and that's it. I won't name the school but let me tell you, everyone knows who they are.
This is the most ridiculous shit I've seen in years, just wat.
SO I'm mad about it and now it's on the internet, we'll see what he says after I send them their own syllubus back with the textbook highlighted in neon.

He's a raging dousche and blew me off, so I emailed the dean, fuck this guy.

That's a load of bullshit. they could have used some crappy excuse like 'we want to make sure you know this material', even THAT would have been better than just saying NO WE'RE NOT USING THAT BOOK HOW DARE YOU
lol Seriously, I got that email at work and it was like LOL HOLY SHIT WOW
i thought i could dive right into the heavy stuff.
i tell this to everyone...
seriously... unless you have a large wealthy family, or lots of credit worthy co-borrowers.. DO NOT GO to a private college!!! you will NOT finish!!!
