[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can’t this country address the cost bubble in education?

Europe has small universities in terms of physical campus; the good schools there turn out equal or better to us schools.[/quote]

Because European universities focus on teaching and learning, not all that bureacratic/ political stuff they do here employing armies of useless folks.[/quote]

My son is going to engineering school in Germany for very little money.  Not only that, but the campus are not flashy. A ton of money is not being sunk into ostentatious buildings and grounds. You are there to learn, not to admire architecture, not to party, not to grow up,  and not to find yourself. It is very utilitarian and he is getting a great education despite not having access to a beautiful gym and  millions of dollars in athletic fields and structures.  They do not even have team sports. Any idea what a drag these athletic programs and award willing architectural buildings have on the cost to run a school? It is insane. He goes to school basically in what looks like an office building. Also there is no campus housing. That is not a thing. [/quote]

This is great! Does he have a german language background? Are classes in german or english? [/quote]
