I dislike the idea that Collage/University is for preparing people to be in work force: "The question is why we can’t just prepare students for the work force."

In collage/university you learn how to learn, field does not matter.
For future of society we need people who are not educated to do "the job" - we need more and more people who can think for themselves and shift between jobs.
It is sad observation that many people go there to get "the paper" it is also sad observation that I see people complaining "it is not part of my job description".
I like the Isaac Asimov novella "Profession".
- veilrap 5y agoI agree 100%. Learning how to learn is a top goal of college, and most at least, tend to do a pretty good job at it. Colleges are far more than just a text book with a certification at the end.
