In the [[United States]], the word "college" is both synonymous with "[[university]]", and also may describe a component (including a graduate school) under the umbrella of a university (e.g. a "College of Nursing").  In some cases, though, the term is used to denote an institution that only offers undergraduate degrees, or to denote a two-year institution (i.e. a [[community college]]).

Many colleges and professors have been known for their strong liberal biases, and for promoting [[liberal propaganda]].<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A8427-2005Mar28.html]</ref>  Depending on whether or not the student selects one of the [[Worst College Majors]], college can leave the student in suffocating debt and delusional; the effects of which may take decades to undo if it ever happens.
