Quite so.

That said, if our tuition is north of a hundred grand (as mine was), one wonders that that expense cannot be borne by the institution.

Even building simple structures and predicting their failure would be a worthwhile endeavor.

Now that I think about it... do we ever predict failures in software? Things just seem to break.. and we go in and fix it after.

At least that is my impression.
