Parents will pay tuition as long as they believe that they are purchasing a credential for their children that will enable their access to opportunity.

The academic nonsense and tyranny will end when employers (and most importantly, the high-prestige employers), start refusing to hire the graduates of academic institutions that are indoctrinating nonsense and establishing tyranny.

Thanks for writing this up. Although I'm not an academic, I tend to agree with 2--we need fresh ideas, and I'm doubtful that the current system can be reformed in such a way it will be able to produce them. Maybe a lot will move outside the institutions to the online platforms, which might be a rough ride, but perhaps a necessary one.
