Can you name one tangible contribution to humanity that Dr. Kaku has contributed to? Not theoretically things like string theory which he has been trying at for 50 years.

The “no kid left behind” and “push them forward” style of education the US has is what is keeping them behind. These systems were originally designed to not “seem racist” but were to help underprivileged minority children continue education. What this style of education did though over the years was bring down the ENTIRE group.

Now we have kids graduating High School who only read at a 6th grade level.

Speaking from engineering side


Many of the RUST belt schools have ABET accreditation, lower tuition, less discrimination in enrollment. Bonus is the faculty usually has more bandwidth for student time than larger institutions with research focus. Honestly, the better engineers typically come from these types of schools. The book smart ones from primary state and big name private schools often can't cut it in real world.


The odd dynamic was the flood of people in college trying to pay to win. And college and lower education pushing this for profits. This watered down college for most disciplines and added more dumbasses into lecture halls and curving of grades (yes some college wanna be professors do this). Evidence was 80s era oscilloscopes in the college labs while the public facing library computer lab had state of the art machines to lure kids in.

The administration showing once again that pettiness and petulance are are its overriding governing philosophy.

idk maybe the fact he taught classes to many people.. Admits when he was wrong and tells the truth about text books are trash. Have you even tried reading one of his books?

Someone being honest and doing their PAID job is now considered a contribution to humanity? Jeez the bar is low. Either that or you are confusing contributions to society as contributions to humanity.

Now you just missing the actual contributions ... as in teaching others is a great 1.. Knowledge in books is another great 1... Telling the truth is a rare 1... Do you always just talk out your bung hole ? lol

Really what needs to happen to these schools is some kind of sacking, declare them as enemy institutions and take them under complete government control, get rid of all administrative staff, inspect every single faculty member for radicalism, and review every single student admitted.

It's going to trash America to stop with the special treatments?

No buddy, no it won't.

Repeating:

I’m not sure that doing what you are SUPPOSED to do to get paid or be a non despicable human being is “contributing to humanity”. What has he done that has affected the world as a whole? Can you without question say he’s made a difference in every corner of the world?
