Only one job got done though. It's not like they can teach 2 classes at the same time

And by the same token, only one degree was really given. It's not like they could take separate classes. Maybe they should have had to pay a fee for teachers grading two papers or whatever, but it's really only one degree since it has to be all of the same classes and only taking up one seat.

I am only speculating, but I am sure they could have opted to only enroll one of them. But I assume they both wanted their own degree, even knowing it would be essentially useless.

Also possible they had scholarships and didn't even pay for college.

Yeah, the college gave them an option of 1 or 2 degrees, they wanted each to get their own degree.

Yeah, I am thinking the same thing. Someone along the way paid for their college, I'm sure. And yes, they probably both wanted the degree. It makes sense. If I have to sit in class and do all of the work, I want my name on a degree.

No that makes too much sense obviously they were scammed and college is a fraud
