This popped up on my newsfeed this morning and made my day. I see this as a genuinely revolutionary action and a signal flare to agitate for a better future. Thoughts?

Apparently this particular university had been closed for two years after being accused of fraud. All of these students in these debt papers were still being forced to pay to this essentially dead institution on threat of legal action.

If this gentleman has actually accomplished what he claims to have accomplished, he should be hailed as a hero.
