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.
LadyLaClaire@Manigarm I’m still sorting through articles. Could you please share associated article links please?
@LadyLaClaire Which links are you looking for? The Guardian article I mentioned is linked in the first post.
@Manigarm could you share that one again please? I didn’t make it back that far in the conversation and it didn’t show in my feed for some reason.
@LadyLaClaire Sure. Here you go!
