125. Trends in Higher Education: Is Higher Ed In Trouble??
In this episode of the College Knowledge podcast, hosts Dave Kozak and Joe Kerins discuss various trends and challenges facing higher education. They highlight the decline in students attending higher education institutions, with a specific focus on the decrease in male enrollment since 2010. The pandemic has further complicated this trend, with blue-collar jobs struggling to find employees and some parents unwilling to let their children experience the measures taken by educational institutions during this time.
The hosts also discuss the increasing trend of students only willing to attend elite institutions, and if they don't get in, they choose not to go to college at all. This mentality is analyzed in the context of the current parenting style that aims to prevent failure rather than allowing children to learn from it.
Furthermore, the episode touches on the changes in standardized testing, specifically the SAT, and how making the test easier has had a negative impact on college admissions and the academic rigor of elite institutions. The hosts argue that this dilutes the value of education and has a long-term negative effect on the workforce.
Overall, the podcast emphasizes the importance of making critical decisions when it comes to higher education, considering the social, academic, and financial fit for the family.
