Gotta love the US universitiy system these days...instead of investing
and educating it's own, many are building university extensions
in foreign lands.

1. Are University Professors going to become an endangered

species?

2. outsource ALL usa jobs

could be done. 5 billionaires and 300 million soon-to-starve middleclassers, the only ones here in the ol usa.

Professors? tape Indian profs speaking british english perfectly, and show tapes here.
They take questions via internet.

Surgeons? been done already, robot arms controlled from australia , patient here.

Just get inventive.

We need billionaires, we do not need you. Plenty of room on the sidewalk for you to live. For a time. Till winter gets to you.

3. Aren't they just selling education in India?

I doubt many Michigan citizens are losing their jobs due to those going to UofM deciding to attend classes in India.

It is probably making education cheaper in some way (distant as it may be) or better for students at UofM.

4. The U of M Business School has had similar programs in...

Hong Kong and Brazil. It's not outsourcing...
