      Good thread, though the selection effects aren't that strong I think. It's that plus overexposure of the extremists. I suspect the STEM side is mostly centrist still.https://twitter.com/noahpinion/status/934605995690487808 …

      Universities are the lynchpin of the modern American economy. Now, Republicans are going to try to gut them, because they don't understand selection effects: http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/national/2017/11/25/elitists-crybabies-and-junky-degrees/?utm_term=.78b471d9a784 …

      I'm too busy laughing at "Universities are the lynchpin of the modern American economy". How about: Keep the top 5 departments in each field, dissolve every other university / department, put 20 year olds on a regiment of Coursera and group housing, watch renaissance unfold.

      Hell; keep the top 50 most productive "fields", dissolve the rest, give would-be students a voucher to App Academy.

      I deeply respect primacy of “jobs”, actually. I believe some hero will one day articulate this better:https://twitter.com/ckhonson/status/934271283369426944 …

      did you see that graphic going around that claimed that the biggest single “private” employer in many states was state U?

      Huh. I’d believe that. I’d also guess most of those jobs are food/building/custodial related, or are there actually that many paper-pushers?

          Google cost disease for basic explanation.A lot of the admin growth has nominally been to administer loan programs, which in turn is complex because of affirmative action. If you want to understand the rise of campus SJWs, follow the money.
