Universities

Charles T Munger, Vice-Chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Corporation writes:

'There's a lot wrong (with American universities). I'd remove 3/4 of the faculty -- everything but the hard sciences. But nobody's going to do that, so we'll have to live with the defects. It's amazing how wrongheaded [the teaching is]. There is fatal disconnectedness. You have these squirrelly people in each department who don't see the big picture.'
