This is an interesting piece from Nicholas. I will have to read this paper, but I am always looking for ways to maximize the creation and dispersion of knowledge.
I just completed Bryan Caplan’s book, The Case Against Education (essay coming on this soon), and I find it persuasive that higher education is, for the most part, broken in the US.
I previously suggested that if we finance higher education using income-sharing agreements, we might better align the incentives of industry, businesses, and universities.
Now I am also wondering if we paired this with additional subsidies to research universities, we may unlock a new level of innovativeness.
The Trump Administration seems to have studied this paper carefully in order to do the opposite. :)
