Just like much of the healthcare system, government jobs, military contracting, etc., college is a glorified welfare-jobs program for much of the staff and arguably entire departments and schools as well as a business for much of the vampire administrators. Too much welfare relies on the current college system and there have been too many “EdD”’s, MFAs, etc. awarded for us to meaningfully back out of this system. I think the bough will break on society as a whole before anything happens to the school system, considering all the other additional subsystems sucking out resources. These degrees in certain fields have always been a fine vacation for the rich, but unfortunately we’ve beguiled the poor into pursuing them as well. Might as well call it an MLM scheme at this point.
