One of my greatest criticisms of higher education, or at least the academic institutions (having spent almost 20 years working for one), is that they approach education as a means to an end. Students are viewed as a resource to extract money from and little more. It’s no wonder people are questioning the value and ROI of higher education given the cost.
What educational institutions and the community should be doing is reframing the student-teacher or student-institution relationship and working to build a system that provides better support for lifelong learning via low cost classes people can drop in rather than limiting or overly emphasizing degree programs.
