Re: Rant about education systems

because the educational system needs to maintain artificially high entrance standards in order to maintain a false rarity and retain its institutional prestige and role as an arbiter of authority

I think schooling and academia are great and education is great and necessary, but a lot of things about the system that we have now are pretty skeevy and terrible.

Yeah, I didn't even get into all the messes with financial aid and mental health ): Most colleges don't really want the brightest and the best, they want the best of a very specific type of student who fits into their pre-engineered mold.

I hope you realize that this sounds exactly like the whine of losers everywhere--that they're being prevented from succeeding because the game is rigged against people with talent and originality.
