Self-serving Eric, who hopes to be an econoimcs professor, couldn't agree more. Demand for college professors needs to go up. My other side couldn't disagree more strongly. A significant percentage of undergrads should really be in some kind of 2-year trade school instead. The marginal person should get less schooling. The person in the bottom quartile of an undergrad class would make more money by instead enrolling in community college and learning to be an electrician or a plumber. Of course, this is pure assertion and is backed by nothing more than my sense of the matter. Eric Crampton
