Top US colleges' insistence on keeping tuition costs high and offering fall classes in-person shows that they care only about money, not the public good (via profgalloway)

As in any sector, COVID-19 has yielded some unlikely winners. For example, the Cal State system, who many would argue is the real jewel of California, has announced they will be online only. This allows them to focus on the tech and training to deliver a better online experience. Cal State, which will graduate 40,000 more students than the entire Ivy League this year, is not rendered flaccid by COVID-19, as the experience was never a big part of the equation.

So, thoughtful, talented people — university administrators — are hard at work figuring out campus configurations and protocols to make campus safe. Ok, and what about off-campus? Unless the NYU provost can convince Mayor de Blasio to reinstate prohibition, there will be a lack of distancing in SoHo this fall.

Regardless of enrollments in the fall, with endowments of $4 billion or more, Brown and NYU will be fine. Likely better than fine, as a culling of the university herd would increase their number of applicants and return them to the salad days, only better. However, there are hundreds, if not thousands, of universities with a sodium pentothal cocktail of big tuition and small endowments that will begin their death march this fall.

profgalloway Start looping in k-12 into these conversations. They are not exempt. This idea that big money equates to quality starts as young as kindergarten. An entire industry created to capitalize on parental angst and schooling, kindergarten consultants.

profgalloway I just love this guy and his visionary thinking!
