Dr. Holly Walters"Rishi Sunak will announce on Monday that he will CAP the number of students wanting to study "low-value" degrees."
Want to know what I think?
"Courses will be capped that do not have a high proportion of graduates getting a professional job, going into postgraduate study or starting a business"
From now on, philosophy, language, religion, politics, and culture will be exclusively the purview of the very rich.
For everyone else, college is where you will acquire specific skills that you will trade for wages on the capitalist market. Nothing else.
Let's be clear. Those "low value" degrees are all the degrees were you learn how power works. How knowledge is made. Where hierarchies and ideologies come from. And why all of that is considered "low value" and by whom.
Mike Knell@Manigarm Oxford's PPE course seems to have had a net negative effect on both the economy and the cultural life of the country for quite some time now, but I'm guessing that one won't get capped.
