That isn't a question I can answer in a short post, but a couple quick hits:

1. Education is a business now, and responds to business incentives.

2. The postgrad environment is a mess, in part because of #1, in part because of its own internal issues, and in part because of fundamental supply and demand.

3. The topics have all been deeply politicized.
