In this brief commentary, TJ Walker discusses a newly released Yale committee report that attributes the erosion of public trust in higher education to colleges themselves. The report cites four main problems: soaring tuition costs, opaque admissions processes, pervasive grade inflation, and a lack of clarity about the fundamental purpose of universities today. Walker responds with sarcasm, congratulating Yale for pointing out that charging students the equivalent of a beachfront condo price for a four‑year degree inevitably breeds public resentment. His tone underscores a critical view of higher‑education institutions and highlights the tension between high costs and societal expectations.

A Yale committee just released a report saying colleges themselves bear a real responsibility for the collapse in public trust in higher education, citing high cost, opaque admissions, grade inflation, and confusion about what universities are even for anymore. And I have to say, congratulations to Yale for discovering that when people charge you the price of a beachfront condo for 4 years of school, some resentment may step in. Ultimize.
