The problem with Lambda School is the model and vision that suggests a general college education isn't worthwhile. That college should focus on a marketable skill directly leading to some job. That's optimal, but that leaves out the social aspects, the critical thinking aspects, and the safe space to have an open mind and absorb and share ideas.
I would argue those other aspects of higher education are far more critical than the bootcamp model and vision.
And eventually, it boils down to a waste of time for some subset of students, which is not helpful to our higher education interests.
