As someone who has spent their career in education, there’s so much hyperbole and silliness in this thread.

As someone who has spent their career in business nationally and internationally, there is so much minimization of the educational problem here in this state.

Wow! Did this thread ever go Debbie Downer! Last year everyone was counting the number of tall cranes in the city! I know there are some reality checks that need to be done, but it could have been done in November.

And in which state do you live and teach?

Anything that a DC think tank / higher education professor says isn't worth the toilet paper they wiped their @$$ with that morning. I couldn't think of a more-removed-from-society person than the one you described...

So you place no value on what a higher education professor teaches.

This is the problem.

The guy that told my daughter what they couldn't do from Oklahoma? He may have been an ass, but he wasn't wrong. Today my daughter actually DOES have one of "those" jobs in DC. She's a policy director for an NGO and she's not yet 30. But she didn't graduate from an Oklahoma school, she went to Swarthmore College outside Philly. She is part of our brain drain and actually proved him correct.
