@bryanalexandee@kate@Downes@actualham@harmonygritz@cogdog I should add — I am very aware of the fact that the origins of higher education are all about preparing students for careers, from schools for prospective bureaucrats in ancient China, Hindus Valley, and Mesopotamia, to the origins of European universities as training grounds for lawyers and theologians. But ever since the origin of Humboldt University, higher education has been about more and has taken a broader view of being for the good of society. Neoliberalism in HE has been regressive.
