I think the way to reform university is to create the 10x competitor. The be so good they can’t ignore you option What this unblocks is the need for accreditation which is a total racket and the single variable blocking competition Create a school that produces total studs,employers won’t care about accreditation

Elite universities are selling status. That takes time to build. Most talented young people seeking status don't want to be in the generation of students who don't get the status. Thiel Fellowship and YC are more interesting competitors since they have crossed the status threshold.

you can be elite or you can be different (still have to be good though) If schools are selling status, network and connections, what are they missing? What would a disruptor have to do something tells me the answer might appear before us in the founding stories of religions
