I agree, and my probably unpopular opinion is that while I feel compassion for those who are employed by institutions that are not well suited for the 21st century economy (including 21st century demographics), that policymakers should forgo extreme measures to try to resuscitate expiring institutions.
Oh I do not believe taxpayers should bailout any private institution of higher education. They made their bed and now they have to lie in it. I know it's harsh, but so many colleges and universities offer numerous degrees in fields that don't exist anymore or are difficult to find a job with. They're just looking to cash in on students. Many of these institutions are stuck in the 1950's.
