What is the Goal of Academia?
Have you at all times wondered what the true goal of school and college is? Most would say it is to educate the masses, and that certainly, in itself is a completely blue-blooded cause, one which should ensure and guarantee the ongoing strength of our nation right? Sure, on the other hand there is a lot more to it than that.
The overall goal of academia is not just to educate, it appears to also be alive to improve little humans to be subservient to authority and to execute the future seeing that those behind the curriculum demand and want to build, usually out of self-interests (surprise! they are humans).
Additionally, the longer people are in school the longer they are out of the workforce historically and that was also a use of academia, but with demographics changing (cite: Futurecast), shortages in some industries (truck drivers, nurses, law enforcement, auto mechanics, FAA, etc.) that may not work in the future and the lean discretion grow.
Meanwhile we are going to need more technically qualified students in many sectors. For case in point the labyrinthine difficult nature of auto maintenance, you close to need a level in personal computer Science. And who is going to fix, maintain, and build all these tall tech, nanotech, biotech, robotics, and substitute energy technologies in the future?
America seems to obtain lost her way in the process of educating our citizenry, indeed in many ways we are failing. We’ve spent too a lot of time brainwashing our next generation, than actually preparing them for the realities they will face once they graduate and that is really a shame. believe on this.
