It seems the psychology education in the 60s where on to something! They
created the best technological people in a generation, so a la carte seems
to be very beneficial for innovation and following ones natural talents

At UC Santa Barbara, there is (was?) a "Department of Creative Studies".
The annual course catalog always just contains a notice that "The
Curriculum had not been finalized at the time of publication". It is
really an "invitation only Graduate school for undergraduates", effectively
by invitation only. My stepdaughter Birgitte was invited, and put together
a series of mathematics programs. She said that no class had more than a
dozen students, most had only half that many. And none of them were
"regular Americans". The other guy in her math seminars was Iranian.

But these are probably fading away these days.
