"Centers of Excellence" are fine if they are few and interspersed and appropriately staffed and funded. But all content areas cannot be such "Centers," nor can there only be such "Centers."

Dr. Jacobs and company are attempting to use a business model to turn a institution of higher learning into a "for profit" technical school. This is not the reason a member of our society attends a university. The collapse of the liberal arts at UT will devalue the degrees of alumni and destroy the educational culture of a great institution.
