Am I against education?


What is wrong with today's college education. We have great colleges, universities and Professors. We  have made huge investments in college education. We also have huge population that believes in the glory of college degrees.  

Well, I am not happy with the results. Why are we treating all subjects and profession the same way ? Why are we using the same model for every subject? Is it because of simplicity? For me it looks like nobody had really put any thought into it.  Or is it mediocrity? 

Today 's education is best suited for a subject like English literature. Classes by good professors may sound like "poetry". But the tragedy is that we treat Computer science same way, use the same model. I agree that some lab hours were added as an after thought. But what is needed is a new model from the ground up.  If we do not do that we are looking at a huge failure.
