18 Jan 2019295
A professor at the University of Notre Dame is argued that higher education is drowning in “bullshit†in a recent column for the Chronicle.
Writing for the Chronicle of Higher Education, Notre Dame Professor Christian Smith argued in a column last week that higher education has some serious issues. BS is universities hijacked by the relentless pursuit of money and prestige, including chasing rankings that they know are deeply flawed, at the expense of genuine educational excellence (to be distinguished from the vacuous “excellence†peddled by recruitment and “advancement†offices in every run-of-the-mill university),†one complaint read.
Smith bemoaned the lacked of intellectual diversity in many academic fields, specifically the humanities and social sciences. He argues that the academics in these fields are hypocrites because they fail to live up to the values of diversity and tolerance that they often preach.
