As someone who does a lot of thinking about education reform, people have asked me what I think about college. I basically say, "I'd have to see." Because the largest problems with colleges can be derived from the simple fact that most students aren't ready to be in college. That's why so much of undergraduate-level coursework is about filling the holes in general education... and such cramming in makes it difficult to get a good immersion in any specialization. That's why your major usually doesn't matter.
I want to see the core system, the primary and secondary schools, overhauled. Wait twenty years. Then see what problems there actually are.
