Problem
Inadequate university education
Incidence:
In South Africa is is claimed that the pattern in universities since decolonization has been: liberation governments respond to populist pressures and force colleges to adopt egalitarian admissions policies; student bodies expand dramatically, academic standards decline and alienation sets in as ill-prepared students cannot cope; the university becomes a haven for criticism of the government; the government responds with a crackdown on academic freedom and a cut in funding.
