I am reading the notes taken at his !college! class posted about a few days ago. I am on the 6th lecture, and just realised that while thinking he was a douche I was quoting him, so I have to take back my negative thoughts about him and say he seems to have some good ideas and the notes are well worth a read. Anyway, I got the impression from the lectures so far that his problem with college would be more due to the tendency for students to associate 'difficult' with 'valuable', and he was really railing against a handful of so-called elite institutions. Arguing that you should avoid any formal training is pretty daft - you can learn a lot by yourself but self-study tends to anti-select against important-but-boring stuff (I've recently changed from self-study back to programmed-study and have to begrudgingly accept that I am consolidating my understanding of certain issues only since).
