Universities Can't Fulfil the Myth
Universities come with a mythical mission. But they don’t fulfill it. This article covers many very common sentiments among my family and friends, and I think the article addresses the problem and the lack of solution very well. I think I’ll just riff on things that I feel are already incredibly obvious to anyone who has been through the system recently. I’m currently a mentor for a high-school junior, and as his high school pushes him towards applying for university admission, I question his motives to find out if that really helps him with his life goals.
