They can't think of any way how?
Maybe they could cut back on the resort like environments?
If these educators lack the ability to imagine how it's possible, maybe they shouldn't be teaching.
Here's one idea of many. Average time to graduate is in excess of five years now. We also read that most college students have to take remedial classes. We also read that 1/3 of college students learn nothing before they graduate, not because they already knew it, but because they learned nothing. OK, stop accepting students that need remedial classes. If you can't add two fractions together or write a 5 paragraph essay at a sixth grade level, you should not be in college end of story. Just stop accepting these people. But do write down the names of the schools they went to, and shut down those schools if there are more than a certain number of these illiterate people graduating. Or why not just return to some vocational education. It's absurd to think that the entire public is college material and people are some sort of uniform robots that can be programmed to do high tech work. A lot of people are not so smart. That's just the way they are. I am tired of having to fix my own plumbing because I can't find a good plumber because there is no vocational education! Plumbing pays $100 an hour if you have your own truck! That's 12 times more than most PhD grad students make.
Huge amounts of resources are wasted at college dealing with people who should not be there. No college in the US should have a class in basic arithmetic or writing. Those classes should not exist. If you need those classes, go to an adult education center that services the homeless and ex convicts. Not college.
