Universities have turned into factories whose mission is to “create conformity of thought”, according to the co-founder of the Daily Wire. Jeremy Boreing’s advice to young people: going to college is about the dumbest thing you can do.

Once upon a time, people from Wyoming went to Boston for education.

In the future, people from Boston will go to Wyoming for education.

Wyoming schools will become more powerful than Boston schools. The Wyoming Institute of Technology will rule.

I believe it was Trump I remember touting technical schools (while he was in the White House). He absolutely got it right, since colleges and universities have been declining in value for decades. Even 4 decades ago when I was attending college, they were far too interested in liberal arts courses than actually teaching something that would be used in a career. Their main value was in offering a degree that had the sole value of proving you could stick with something until you filled boxes and put on a cap and dress to receive your prized paper at the end. (Many jobs required a bachelor’s degree in anything, even underwater basket weaving; they didn’t care if you learned anything that could help you do the job better).

Now, many people are smart enough not to pay a higher salers to somebody who has a couple of extra worthless letters behind their name. When I was hiring, I was more interested in the person’s motivation level and capabilities. I paid the most to those who were the most valuable to the business (hard workers who made the business more profitable.). I don’t care if they attended a single day of school.

Great link, thanks.

I almost didn’t watch this because of that comedians face on the beginning of the video (I almost always feel more stupid after watching him as if he can somehow suck intelligence out of people). But even a broken clock is right 2times a day, so I watched it and was glad I did.

I grew up without my father for most of my life and he recently died. I was thinking about some of the (very few) things I learned from him and this video reminds me of a lesson I learned from him when he was telling me how stupid I was for leaving a very good-paying job in Alaska in order to go back to the lower 48 for my second year of college. “College is just learning more and more about less and less until finally you know everything there is to know about absolutely nothing”. After about 20 years of college/university, I see a great deal of truth in that statement. (I shared it with a retired professor friend of mine and he had a hard time arguing with it either).

Now, more than ever college is just liberal indoctrination, with a little information you could easily gain on the internet. There are jobs/careers you can only obtain with a degree, but those jobs will likely never pay enough to regain what you’ve lost.

Many IDW posters scoff at Bill Maher but I’m a big fan of his withering criticism of the woke and the brainless. He’s one of the few well-known mainstream voices still willing to stand up progressivism, virtue signalling and Islamism. Of course he can be a dick, but he goes after liberals with the same enthusiasm he goes after everyone else.

@GeeMac
I’ve heard his rants many times and this is the first time I didn’t think, “what a blithering idiot”. Of course, the things from him in this post were spliced together quips that left out his regular arrogant and ignorant buffoonery. I don’t see myself watching much more of him though. As I said before, even a broken clock gets it right 2 times a day. I wouldn’t expect him to become as valuable as a broken clock though.

@Daveclark5 my broken clock is only right once a day!

@GeeMac haha. Nice

It was no secret. We purposefully applied the Prussian Model to U.S. public schools around 150-years ago. Colleges and Universities are directly downstream from that sewage outlet.

Rockefeller helped to standardize education and it included educators being trained at his Teacher's college and having a teaching degree. Eventually, education became the same across the nation.

@GeeMac @Daveclark5 @rway @FrankZeleniuk @sqeptiq

Public schools require a degree from a teacher's college, and this requirement must be destroyed.
It hinges on the assumption that a person who doesn't have a teaching degree is unfit to teach, which is

Bull!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A teacher should have a real degree, not a teacher's college degree.

Most teacher's colleges are leftist, and they propagandize leftism into future
teachers. The teaching degree requirement is a subsidity for bullschist
teacher's colleges.

Public schools are nothing more than a machine for steering money to leftists. Defund public schools! Let there only be private schools.

We need standardized education, but that should only be part of it. There should also be space for creative teachers to teach unstandardized material.

Whenever I'm about to teach a class, I get solicitations from purveyors of standardized textbooks, proposing that I use their textbooks for my class. I tell them to

Bugger off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I write my own textbooks, and they're better than yours.
And i put them on the web for free, whereas your textbooks cost money.

@jaymaron Recommended standards are good.
And a centralized bureaucracy is probably the worst possible way to establish and manage them.
The Worldwide Web Consortium is probably the best model to emulate.

@rway

Yes, bureaucracy bad. Teachers should be independent. In the good old days, professors were independent. Today, they are slaves of a department.

An old-school university department consisted of fiercely independent professors.

Universities inculcate the state ideology.
