The public really needs to understand this. Every university system in the world rests on public funding, there has never been an alternative model at any time in history.
We have universities for literally the same reason that we have roads and armies.

I don't disagree that the US university business model was/is fragile, but surely not for this reason?
There is no society in the history of humanity that has successfully built a good university system without massive govt subsidies. US had already pushed the idea very far.

This is our reopened library. It was really hard without it. It taught me to appreciate the good library in the building!
We began a major renovation of our faculty building in June 2023, and it was a very challenging 18 months. However, we can now enjoy fresh and new halls and rooms, and since last week, finally, also our library. Take a look at the newly opened library!
