If we in
higher education bury our heads in the sand, more and more industries will
start doing their own educating as the quality of our product fails to meet
their standards. We can all agree that this would be a sad turn of events.
I don't want to
be caught teaching about vacuum tubes when they need information about IC's,
nor do I want a student to dictate to me what he thinks I should teach him
so that he can be a physicist. I think I am better qualified to determine
what courses are needed. However, I can't retire to my Ivory tower and teach
what I please.
