How would you make an open-source university? Who would you get to write your open-source textbooks? What would the different majors course sequence look like?

Not possible in the US where "education" is an extortion tool.

What corresponds to the source? What corresponds to making a build?

What do universities and colleges even need to function? Are there things they're required to teach? Do they change every year? Who tells them what they're required to teach and what books are credible? Don't teachers need to have the required qualifications? Are there repercussions if they don't? Does the institution have to pay any fees or taxes if there isn't a physical location? Are they bound by any laws? Would the degree even be valid?

also professors or PhDs will need to volunteer to review changes. Maybe like 10 professors needed to make changes to the course sequence. Each class will have a homework folder with respective .tex files inside.

The value of a university is the accreditation not the education. If you learn from youtube videos but get accepted and pass the exams you have attained that university's standard. It's more convenient if they also teach you, but in essence they are mainly filters.
