Too little nuance. Which would one prefer: a home-schooled neurosurgeon or an accredited one? A home-schooled nuclear physicist working at a power plant or an accredited one?<p>Universities won&#x27;t go away; some things you just can&#x27;t learn at home. However, the education system is indeed loaded with problems. There are too much students who study for the wrong reasons; too few teachers who can teach; archaic teaching methods, e.g. lectures; mandatory education; and the overwhelming amount of useless degrees, e.g. gender studies, tourism, marketing, etc.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;philomath.boards.net&#x2F;thread&#x2F;20&#x2F;readme" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;philomath.boards.net&#x2F;thread&#x2F;20&#x2F;readme</a>
