Is this a David Bailey burner account? 😂
I'm sure it is difficult to deal with students who are unmotivated and unprepared for a college course load. I hope you do your best to offer value to your students!
"A big part of the problem is the students themselves."
This is the equivalent of a company blaming its customers for its subpar products or services, and a viewpoint that makes no sense to me...
Universities will die out without major change.
Thinking back on my time in college (graduated in 2023 from a public state school), it offered me little to no true value. I saw 3 large issues going through undergrad.
- The College's goals are misaligned with the customers (students)
-
Colleges only care about making money and making their school more exclusionary to create a facade of being an "elite University".
-
Students care about getting skills that translate to getting a job and making money. Most are too brainwashed to care about price... That is a whole different rabbit hole
- College doesn't teach you the skills you need for the workforce
-
I majored in finance and only saw the business school, but it was a mess...
-
The majority of my professors have never worked outside of academia and were hard to understand due to speaking broken English.
-
Want to learn how to actually use Excel, PowerPoint, Word, etc? You're going to have to figure that one out on your own.
-
Want to learn how to get a job? Going to the job fair with a resume in hand is not going to get you there. Yet again, you're on your own for that one.
- College brainwashes students into believing the slip of paper is "special"
-
In school, if you do the basics, you get a slip of paper and a mindset that you deserved it and deserve a great job because of it.
-
Get ready for the cruel reality of the world, but just showing up or doing the bare minimum does not guarantee success or money.
-
No company worth its salt wants to deal with a whiny little brat who has never gone above and beyond. There are a million other people with that same slip of paper.
TLDR: College needs major changes made. My time in undergrad offered little true value. Here are the top 3 issues I saw going through school.
Did the Bible Warn Us About Bitcoin?: https://youtu.be/lwbUwl8cNAI?si=oTsMLDqjZFKLTXPp
I think this video goes hand in hand with the "spend your bitcoin" debate we have been seeing recently.
It changed my perspective of what I should be doing with my stack and has led to some deep thinking as of recent...
It fully depends on the Millennials and Zoomers...
America is stuck in a new game playing by old rules. What I mean by this is we are using a Boomer/Gen X playbook for a world that looks completely different.
If we continue to use this playbook, the wealth gap will continue to widen, which is upstream of most other issues we face.
The only way to stop this collapse is for the young(er) citizens to make a change. You have to pray that the subgroup of hyper-motivated individuals in these generations do not burn out or get stomped out before they can make the needed changes.
If this happens, they will take their productive capabilities and leave America (we are seeing this now).
There is so much potential for America, but the cards are stacked against the people who can fix it.
I refuse to lose hope and believe America will continue to thrive for generations to come.
