for federal loans yes.
Wrong. A student may apply for a loan. A private company makes that loan.

Nope. Universities are funded by a government, and the Board of Regents determine what degrees are to be offered. The Board of Regents itself is appointed by that government. This is State government, not federal.

I'm talking about federal backed student loans, dick. thats the bread and butter.

Well that certainly never used to be the case. Education was state-funded only.
I believe it was Clinton that started Federal block grants.
He also changed things to where Uncle Sugar backs up student loans.
That was a Cloward-Piven move on the US higher education system.
Campus population and administrative staff increased by 200% almost overnight.
As did the cost of tuition and books.

Name a university with a college major that never gets loans approved for its students.

Universities do not take out federal loans.
Only some students do.
Universities do have a federal grant office in them, you know...for 'researchers' on federal welfare.

The Federal Student Aid (FSA) is a loan from the federal government. Private companies are used to service that loan. In other words, the federal government has outsourced it's billing and payments...but the loan itself is by the federal government.
Each loan servicer for this program must be approved by the federal government and conform to the FSA laws.

No, you are talking about universities and government approval of their majors.
A student is not a university.
The federal government does not approve majors or degrees offered by any university.

So no you claim to deny an argument that doesn't exist, but you claim it does?!?

You are falling for his confusion. He thinks a university is a student.
Still stressing out over answers you don't like hearing?
If a job in the petroleum exploration profession seems so exotic and fantastical to you, your social circle must be extremely limited to minimum wage workers, Walmart stock boys, and Uber eats drivers.
Do you actually know any college graduates?

Inversion fallacy.
Inversion fallacy.
Irrelevant question. Irrelevance fallacy.
Drilling crews are third-party contractors who are paid to drill the well, period.
It's Exxon's well and they wanted their own petroleum engineers and geoscientists to evaluate the geophysical log data and determine if there are economically recoverable hydrocarbon reserves.
A petroleum geoscientist has to know how to evaluate neutron log data to determine natural gas saturation and porosity.
We needed to know how to evaluate gamma ray logs because that's how we could determine lithology and net sand in the wellbore.
We needed to be able to evaluate sonic logs because they give you information on rock properties, and we could also use the sonic data to tie them to our 3-D seismic models.

That doesn't change the fact that that are trained and responsible for their well.
So Exxon hired them....and...?
Geophysical is not a word.

llliteracy: plural used as singular. Numerous buzzwords. Verb used as noun.
