Sorry, but higher education is not about getting a job. It is for opening new possibilities and for learning to think on your own, it is about acquiring instruments for intellectual work. I would suggest making higher education even more disconnected from “preparing to enter the workforce”, because it is not what it is about.
Most students are in school because they want jobs, not to learn to think. The professors may be interested in that goal but how can they possibly achieve it with a student body that just wants their degree papers and a shot at the upper middle class?
