Higher education cesspool

The Shame of College Sports - Magazine - The Atlantic: "But the real scandal is the very structure of college sports, wherein student-athletes generate billions of dollars for universities and private companies while earning nothing for themselves. "

This is merely one of the problems that plague higher education. Try professors who don't teach. Try tenure that creates costly sinecures. Try continually rising costs. Try the actual value to students.  I give universities about ten years before they go the way of newspapers. Unless of course sports pulls them through, which would cause Dr. Swift to chortle in his grave.
