That's what "required subjects" used to be all about.  We need to make kids work at things they don't even see the point of at the time.  That's what "liberal arts" education used to be:  getting a firm, broad understanding of both the sciences and the arts. 

When I went to school you couldn't get any degree without a year of physics, a year of chemistry and a year of math.  This was in addition to English, courses on Literature I didn't care to read, and History that I found boring.   I'd be absolutely nowhere today without the firm basis I got in the very late 1950s--requirements that I resented at first and embraced in the long run.  

When my generation took over the campuses in the 1960s, those hard required courses were the first thing to go. And look what we have. 

I repeat, no student should evaluate a teacher until 5 years after graduation.

And curriculum planners, should take back the right and authority to require students to pass courses on what they will need to become useful citizens of the real world with an understanding and appreciation of where this culture came from and enough science to help take it where it should go in the future.

Instead, institutions misnamed "colleges" and "universities" teach trade school skills to enable students to get jobs or make a profit from making art, music, or even marijuana, for gosh sakes.
