Groupon University
Groupon is now offering a deal on a college education. Groupon is now offering a deal on a college education. Groupon is now offering…wait what? Groupon has teamed up with National Louis University in Chicago to offer graduate students a 57% discounted rate on an intro to teaching course. Ohhh ok…wait what?
At first glance this seems like a great idea, and perhaps it is. I am simply a bit apprehensive about this grand leap from teeth-whitening deals to deals on education. Maybe I am looking too far into this, but when I think about Groupon, I typically think about coupons for things that you never really need. Things like cupcake discounts, restaurant deals, and paddleboarding adventures are the norm from what I have seen. This goes in direct contrast to something as important as education, especially at the graduate level. Or perhaps I am just permanently scared from seeing Groupon’s effect on fitness classes. Don’t pretend like you don’t know what I am talking about. That “dealfinder” who decided today he would become a professional yogi. He spends the entire class talking and messing with his phone. He feels just fine about it, because he got a good deal. I can only wonder what the translation would be to a traditional classroom. Or I am wrong and it could be a great thing. Maybe it would give those without the funds to go to school a great opportunity?
One thing is for sure, it will either be the best thing Groupon has ever done, or the worst…
