The purpose of universities is to give the student a strong theoretical foundation to prepare them for doing research. The purpose of Fachhochschulen is to prepare the student for working in jobs outside of academia.

    If the studen isn't paying out of pocket themselves, the tax payer is. Demand better. I am strongly on the side of a well funded government, education should at the very least be subsidized, and all that, but it's people like this that can be used to justify Doge and other insane """efficiency programmes""".

      You say that like this isn’t exactly what Doge would want to accomplish. They’d likely do away with educators at all and just let llms do it. I agree with your base point though. “Demand better” should be the new war cry
