Wow this article was pretty scary.  Although I agree that some of the points (really one of the points) make sense in terms of giving students a future that will support them, it seems crazy to wipe out entire fields of study just because they're not profitable...It takes away the whole idea of learning for its own sake, and for personal enjoyment/fulfillment.  I'm not really even sure how to respond...it seems so extreme.  Also, couldn't the idea of students paying for their education after they start benefiting from it be just a better loan repayment progra m?  This whole education as only a means to make money after school is pretty depressing.
