QUALITY OF DESIGN EDUCATION "LOWER THAN IT WAS" SAY DESIGNERS

Summary from the TLDR Design newsletter

Design education has deteriorated: it's more expensive, less connected to industry, and leaves graduates unprepared and in debt. Too many under-resourced courses lack real-world experience, sustainability training, and adequately supported teachers, suggesting that many skills can now be self-taught and that the traditional university model may need to be rebuilt entirely.
