High School Beats College
I'm starting to believe the nation's better high schools top many universities. Seniors studying physics at my high school were taught by instructors with PhDs. Their first year at college, Physics 101 was usually taught by people working on their master's. One advantage highs schools have over universities is their sole purpose is education. Universities split their focus between education and research. High schools are also top-down institutions. At universities, the inmates (students) are running the institution. Many people advocate for shortening the years spent in high school. I want it increased.
