A society that turns away from science, fails to treat the human capital and skills of its work force as paramount social objectives and does not aspire to attract the most able from around the world is one that courts long-run decline. No amount of short-run economic news, especially when paired with unsustainable government debt, will stop it.

Teachers in England get two-year 6.6% pay rise but schools to foot part of bill https://www.theguardian.com/education/2026/jul/01/teachers-pay-rise-schools-england #Teaching #Schools #SchoolFunding #PublicSectorPay #Colleges #Academies #BridgetPhillipson #EducationPolicy #DepartmentForEducation #Education #England #UkNews #Society

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 📝📊 The #SAT was first administered to 8,000 students in June 1926, born from #WorldWarI #military I.Q. tests designed by #Princeton psychologist and eugenicist Carl Brigham.

Now taken by two million #students annually, fewer than 10% of U.S. #colleges require it for fall 2026 admissions, a shift accelerated by the #Covid #pandemic and long standing debates about what the test actually measures. The article traces the test’s #evolution from a tool that helped break into the old boys’ network of elite colleges to an #exam whose scores strongly correlate with family #income.

Hype for the Future 240D: Greene County, Pennsylvania

I've always loved Penn State's Palmer Art Museum, even though it's attached to an institution of macho entitlement, straight male privilege, and toxic masculinity. I'm not fond of my alma mater. #sexism #endsexismnow #straightmaleprivilege #machoentitlement #toxicmasculinity #toxic #bully #bullies #bullyingmale #bullyingmales #mansplaining #pennstate #pennstatesucks #footballsucks #higherlearning #higherlearningisn't #highereducation #education #college #university #colleges #universities

#Yale Report Finds #Colleges Deserve Blame for #HigherEducation’s Problems
A 10-member committee offered a brutal assessment of academia’s role in creating the forces challenging American colleges and #universities.
High costs, murky admissions practices, uneven academic standards and fears about free speech on campuses, the committee said, are among the reasons for widening discontent over higher education’s worthiness.

1) "Big Beautiful B|ll" tries to screw "woke" degrees [3 yrs fail & Uni has to cancel that #degree path]
"MA in Social Justice & #HumanRights" "BA in Women's & #Gender Studies" "PhD in #African American Studies" were their targets
2) Religious #schools figure out their degrees will lose funding too
3) Chr|stian #Colleges cry foul, beg for rule to be removed

Hype for the Future 180A: State Colleges and Universities in Kansas and Nebraska

https://novatopflex.wordpress.com/2026/04/29/hype-for-the-future-180a-state-colleges-and-universities-in-kansas-and-nebraska/

Je viens de refaire des dessins avec les stats de l'éduc nat' sur les IPS des #collèges en France.

La conclusion reste la même : il faut supprimer la notion de privé sous contrat car le séparatisme des riches et du goupillon c'est pourri.

Alors on me dit souvent «ouiiii mais en #Bretagne c'est pas pareil...»

Je vous laisse argumenter.

Hype for the Future 168E: List of Public State Colleges and Universities in the Deep South 🇺🇸

At the same time, #universities regarded as #elite & prominent public #schools receive way more applications than they could ever accept.

“It’s a bifurcated market between the haves & have-nots,” Selingo said. “The question is, how many of the have-nots will follow #Hampshire?”

#education #HigherEducation #LiberalArts #academia #colleges #economy #funding

“There is a migration away from the small #LiberalArts #schools toward the big public or private #research institutions” with more student activities & academic offerings, particularly in #business & #technology, Selingo said.

As students become harder to enroll, he said, troubled schools compete by discounting #tuition through increased #aid. That reduces overall revenue while costs continue to rise, creating a “doom loop” of financial pressures.

#HigherEducation #colleges #economy #funding

Jeffrey Selingo, an author of several books on #HigherEducation, says many small #schools in the Northeast & Midwest are facing enrollment problems, as shrinking states produce fewer young people. And since most people go to #college within 50 miles of home, schools in shrinking communities often lack a big pool of possible students to draw from, or have to share the pool with other #colleges.
