Here’s the solution. Video every class up load it to 10’s of thousands of students on line......ooops no the professors wont like that.

I have worked in the University system for years. I will tell you this. In most cases it is a waste. You can get a better learning experience on line, unless you are talking about the upper sciences.

The University is the only guild system to survive the middle ages. It’s presupossition is “only knowledge can be passed down from a master lecturer to a student” . Well that is BS now within the information age. The thing that stops people is that a college degree is a membership card. Can you work for 4 years to get a degree? Okay then you qualify for a job.
Its a joke.

“Students face a class struggle” Oh, pleeeeease, poor babies. At least they are in college. Most of their cohort isn’t. Only about 50% of individuals who attend college ever complete their degree. Does everyone understand that only approx 29% of adults have college degrees and less than 1% have advanced degrees. Anyone who is a student is privileged and lucky they have the opportunity. Keep taking those hip-hop classes because I’m sure that will help you in life.
