Public education, as we know it, especially in North America and in Great Britain, either already has been supplanted by business ideology or very soon will be. This ideology has turned students into customers and faculty into salesmen and women who are reduced to selling a product that the university packages up in exchange for profit. The direct and indirect effects this business-cum-education for profit model has had on the actual learning environment are devastating. Learning is now measured in terms of monetary use-value that only serves the interest of a very narrow and dangerous elite corporate ideology imposed on us. This model must be confronted.
