[quote=Anonymous]Interesting article. I would definitely try to steer my children towards UVA or UMD rather than GWU if they didn't get into the top tier - or to a liberal arts college where you might at least get more for your money than being crammed hundreds to a lecture... I am not sure about the speculation at the end of the article though: "What if we actually started measuring how much students learn at their colleges and universities? How would that change the competition among institutions? " I think unfortunately, subjects like engineering aside, most universities are about signalling your intelligence/status rather than about what they teach you.[/quote]
