Depends on your viewpoint. To commodify and neatly package education - 
as I see occurring at every campus I visit or have friends who attend - 
is dangerous. Higher education is rarely a venue for learning, or for 
independent thought these days, it's job training for thousands a year.

Universities aren't "every other market," nor should they be.
