Don't speak for the rest of us please. I personally believe there to be a massive societal disadvantage to the existence of "educational institutions" with hidden political agendas.
- ceejayoz 5y agoYou can believe anything you like, and it's a little silly to read "we" in my comment as "without even a single individual exception". We, society, currently elect representatives who see fit to continue funding a public educational system of schools and universities, which can be inferred to be a general acceptance of their value.
- educaysean 5y agoAnd we, the society, are outraged at the blatant abuse of power we are witnessing in this article. We are shocked by how our current system may have critical vulnerabilities that compromise it's ability to deliver the education it promised, and are ready to discuss which aspect of the status quo may need to be improved upon.
- ceejayoz 5y agoAll that may be true; we'll have to see if society kicks up enough of a fuss. I hope it does in this case. I'm not sure how you get from "this university did a bad thing" to "we should get rid of public universities", though.
- OrvalWintermute 5y agoThe issue is not getting rid of public universities. The issue is huge partisanship which has distorted academia from their mission.
