Description: Of Serfs and Lords by Richard Kelsey Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The high tuition cost at universities is hurting students and only benefiting the tenured faculty and professors. Publisher Description This book identifies the causes of rising college tuitions. It identifies a system of policies, practices, and regulations that have converted higher education into an inefficient system that serves the interest of the tenured class and professional educators over that of the students. Using statistics, analysis, and examples, the author identifies and names the culprit behind these tuition increases as structural and cultural liberalism, all of which has created a tax on students and tuition payers. The author calls this inefficiency the tenure tax. The book examines how to find value in the current system, and it offers reforms in the form of an education revolution to remake higher education. He advocates for changes from how it hires and contracts with professors, to the role of government and private lending. The thesis of the book is simple: The current system is creating a debtor class of Serfs, studying dubious majors not useful in the job market. The result is that institutions are hunting revenue to feed and pay the elite class, the faculty and administrators, who have become Lords in this educational feudal system. Author Biography Richard Kelsey is a former assistant law school and technology CEO. He is a trial lawyer and recognized legal expert who examines whats wrong in higher education and proposes real solutions to fix it.
