My own ideas of fixing the degenerate swamp that is our college and university system.
1. No tax monies. Period.
2. Students get jobs outside the college/university to pay their tuition. Learn to work while they learn their schooling.
3. Specialize “trade” schools for sciences and medicine. Cut out the fluff and nonsense requirements that don’t directly apply to the sciences.
4. Drop the whole non-science degree mills.
5. Make High School valid again.

I disagree. My undergraduate degree was in physics. I attended a liberal arts college, and resented all the liberal arts courses I had to take: history, economics, composition, literature. Over the 60+ years since then, I've had a successful career as an engineer. However, I've been grateful for all that "stuff" I had to take. It made a big difference in my life outside of work. If kept me from being a one-track individual. I strongly recommend a liberal arts education even for science/engineering/medicine majors.
