    These colleges need to focus more on learning than on playing children's games, such as football.

      gene dietz Unfortunately, they rely on those games for a large chunk of their revenue. They also rely on the room and board to cover costs. The push to return to physical attendance is mostly about money.

      Gene Ditz: A lot of these universities would not exist without football. Football brings in the big money.

      I think is about greed ! Rely on a good product ( education) with reasonable prices and reasonable salaries, and they can make. The quality of education did not grow according with the prices from the last 40 years

    What’s funny is professors realizing they can’t leave things up to their assistants like they did. I went to a top university and with some courses rarely saw the professor. Usually was taught by someone still learning it themselves. This is a change a long time coming.

      That is not entirely bad, *if the person learning=TA it is fairly adept. They may have a fresher "learner's view" of the subject. Still you should be able to have access to the professor via office hours each week or it isn't good.

    I wonder what those people who are suing would say if the university just simply shut down until everyone has had their vaccines?

    • @peachykeen8504

      Shutting down until students are vaccinated would be the intelligent and responsible thing to do.

      There is no need to shut down. I've seen high quality instruction delivered over Zoom. And I've seen lecture courses that were very poorly delivered. Lectures so worthless that most stopped attending. And yet no suing for lost tuition money there.

    I was going to be a professor. So happy now I switched.

    My university is going to be face to face until Thanksgiving and then move to remote instruction after that. I predict that some time in October, we are going to get an emergency notice telling us that we are moving instruction online. My state is doing well right now in terms of infection rate, but Dr. Fauci said two things in his testimony: 1) within weeks, it's not impossible that nationwide we'll be at 100,000 new cases a day and 2) states that brought their numbers under control will not be spared when surrounded by such level of destruction. It's math and common sense. What's not common sense is to give serious thought to gathering in closed spaces again when we have a raging pandemic going on.

      Agnes Kim - I hope you and yours stay safe. Maybe your school will change its mind. I don’t see why any institution would want to expose itself to legal liability if someone gets sick or worse.

    Nobody wants to pay top $$$$ for a zoom MASTER CLASS. Higher education needs to be free or very cheap as opposed to being $200k in debt just to get started, the PRICE of entry onto the job market. I smell BS. If schools were funded by Gov't they wouldn't need a HEDGE FUND AKA an endowment.

    This guy is paid off by his school. So biased and one sided.
