The university system is itself fucked anyway. It is grossly unfair to
the students. As I've repeatedly explained here, "students" must be paid
good money to just study. The money should come either from businesses
or the government. It must be an _employment.

Business or government "students" would study and go through their
curricula while getting paid like a good job, and eventually (if they
manage it) get fine-tuned clearly understandable certificates showing
what that employee can do.

Scholarships are there. University is there for social snob reasons and
if you pass, a stamp for getting more stamps. Then you can make money.
The Indian Navy paid the fees for the students they selected. Pioneers,
