"g" only would work just fine for the bottom 90%-99% of universities, in all fields. At top, decreasing returns.

not sure you're correct about decreasing returns. May in fact be the opposite
-
Almost certainly not, if only for reasons of mean reversion: higher the measured IQ, higher likelihood it's error

@InaneImperium And /then/ you give them the prompt for a personal essay that involves Vergil.@HbdNrx @Habesh321 -
No you want Aratus or something like that to screen for test prep
-
.
@InaneImperium Yeah, but the prompt itself is written in Latin!@HbdNrx @Habesh321 -

@InaneImperium Btw, you know it’s more fun to be /imperium insanum/ than to be /imperium inane/, right?@HbdNrx @Habesh321 -
I don't know the line with "insanum", what is it from?

@HbdNrx I still disagree. Isn’t a university, ceteris paribus, the most suitable place to study classics? @Habesh321@InaneImperium -
no need to grant degrees in classics
-
Why grant degrees, then? We can have YouTube courses, then administer GRE-equiv to those who need STEM credential
-
ok, at least in the sciences there is still some decent learning that happens, and the setting is useful
-
being around other people studying the same thing can be really good, plus lab facilities
-
and the degrees can actually prove that you learned something
