Nico from Crown Heights: I hope you do it!
Kamenetz’s forward-looking perspective on these issues is a breath of fresh air! I’m a social science PhD, lucky to have a f/t teaching job, tho it’s only temporary. Recently, a group of colleagues and I started thinking about the revenues we bring to our employers (for doing actual teaching) and what we get back in pay. I heard recently about how more and more private corporations are buying up the charters of failing institutions, getting instant accreditation. I think we — and many other educators in higher education — could set up colleges that would bring much more value to both students and to us, the faculty. Get rid of the middleman!
