>>14210578anyone who has ever taught and given take homes know students cheat out of their asshole given the opportunity, and that's only the cheaters you catch because they're so stupid they can't even disguise it properly. plenty of smart students know how to cheat and not get caught because it's less work to cheat well than to show understanding of the material. that's not their fault, that's the fault of a teacher who uses poor metrics for determining skill mastery.
but 'higher education' before getting a job is a joke anyway so who cares. I can understand primary school because a foundation of basics is needed for all citizens to have a functional civil society, but the idea of spending 2+ extra years learning advanced topics for a career that you might not be good at or enjoy (or for a job that might not even exist) is super retarded. The only thing universities do is prepare you to work at a university.
