[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Prestige is out. Equity is in. Colleges are intentionally throwing away their prestige. Political opponents of colleges are disparaging the college's reputations. Cllege as privilege laundering is no longer working. Bare privilege is even eroding a bit. This is all good. It will drive prices down as students stop chasing false prestige and colleges have to compete on quality and prices. Classes will be attended by students who want to learn, not claim status. Employers and grad school will seek out talented achievers, not diploma names. [/quote] By this logic, college will not be needed. You just need to prove you are certified/qualified. I mean, lots of companies have made recent splashes that they are doing away with college requirements. You either have to start believing them or not.[/quote]
