I've always thought the concept of requiring college to get a degree strange for a couple reasons.
I have an idea, albeit I admit I'm probably not the first one to have it, but I have not seen it as detailed as I have thought, I would love to hear y'all's (southerner here) opinions!
As the title alludes to, I believe you should be able to go through a series of tests/interviews to obtain a degree. Consider the following scenario:
Jim is a bright kid. He loves plants. In 6th grade, he has his first focused biology course. In this course, he discovers his passion and enthusiasm towards the subject, and begins to devote large amounts of personal time to low-level research. Towards the end of middle-school, he already is much more educated than his peers in the subject, and continues to get easy straight-As in it. In high school as well, he excels and is much more educated than his peers, and in some more particular instances, more so than his teachers. By the end of high school, he's has a level of knowledge on the subject that could compare to that of a bachelor-degree college graduate that skimmed by with Cs and Bs, but passed and obtained the degree nonetheless.
In this situation, I believe there should be test and series of available interviews availed by a (currently non-existing) non-government educational entity, wherein this individual's knowledge is tested via a rubric created by the experts of this field.
My stance is that this would allow many exceptionally bright individuals quicker access to the job market and affordably so, increasing success rates in otherwise potentially less populated fields, which could also potentially push colleges to lower tuition.
I encourage polite debate and discussion, and am sincerely excited to here some fresh opinions.
