What to do? University-level education, as many will confirm, is a waste of time
for most students, just a prolonged aptitude test. Undergraduate studies have
become rote, and academic scholarship has been banished to graduate studies.
Everyone is paying 4 wasted years of life: potential scholars are not able to
jump into scholarship, where they would excel, and unpotential scholars are not
able to jump into practice, where they would excel. We are financing hordes of
incompetent academics who keep inventing new journals, conferences and workshops
just to keep their bean counters happy.
interesting perspective ... we need more like you in higher education!
I'm sorry.
