this story kind of flew under the radar, but I, in fact, think it's bad that an entire university system has just given up on the idea that its students should actually learn anything www.calstate.edu/csu-system/n... - ThreadSky

"AI Skills" - Yikes. Guess I'm just going to advise against hiring any 2025+ CSU graduates for any position where I expect any critical thinking skills to be utilized, ever again.

I'm a CSU student rn. I don't know anyone who's actually in support of this. All AI has done is train people to take shortcuts + build distrust between students/professors. Anddd now I get to deal with people looking down on my degrees despite 6 years of education without AI... fucking awesome lol

Beyond fed up with the CSU system. Silencing students with bs like their new TPM policy and then deciding it would be better not to educate us after all. Wonder if those things have anything to do with one another (eyeroll).

It's like one of those dark jokes from the late Soviet Union. The students pretend to learn and the university pretends to teach.

It's enraging, but it's not at all surprising. This feels like the inevitable end of decades of the American education system being a thing which the rich buy their way through and the poor are trained to pass with minimum requirements.

Thanks! You made my mother and I laugh out loud at the breakfast table. Good way to start the day!

Private Education declares Victory as Every University is now a Diploma Mill.

Probably because Newsom is happily slashing the CSU budget, part of a years-long state project of turning a once-great system into . AI might actually get money.

I wonder how all my old professors are doing there. I should have stayed in contact

I know a few. They're not happy about this situation.
