didn't give it much thought but couldn't you eventually run schools and universities on a percentage of student income tax (and remove all other sources) combined with a periodic questionnaire (for life) how [?????] one thinks their education was.

probably a bad idea but it gets me to ponder long term measurements

This assumes that schools are run purely for the future profitable careers of students. If you were a dean deciding what to invest in, would you ever give the teaching school more money? Would the medical school ever train another tropical disease specialist?

i wonder, is that specialist suppose to not make money their entire career? I think actually good education would allow them to do all kinds of things.

I do feel the raw idea is bad then added the survey to measure [????] say quality of life kind of things. If a school produces somewhat useful people who are really happy it seems to merit more funding. The economy may die if everyone has a good life
