During the time of Kant there was a debate whether to close the universities which had been mainly for teaching theology combined with secular studies on the side. One side of the debate was to have only tech schools. --i.e. vocation schools. The other side won--the liberal arts. To the determent of all.

 I say it is time has come for the vocation schools. Learning how to weld, solder, do the jobs that civilization depends on is worth a million PhDs in sex studies.
