Some Thoughts About College ...

SEE HERE I'm retiring this year, in just a few weeks, from full time teaching at the college level and it seems like a good time to reflect a little on college.  College costs too much.  College doesn't deliver enough of what it should and is too oriented towards short term goals, especially pleasing students in the near term.  College is clearly not serious enough from the point of view of most of the students.  Perhaps that is because students don't "get" college very well.  They think of it as just more high school after high school.  Whatever the many issues are the internet age is going to change everything.  I'll likely come back to this point time and time again as I encounter appropriate material.
