Education is the providence of the student. If a student wants to learn,
no
bad teacher is going to stop them. If they don't even the best teacher
will
not make a difference. The teacher is just there to assist the student in
his/her journey. Paraphrased from my Grandfather, a professor at the
University of Minnesota.

I do think that the old fashioned apprenticeship was likely a better form

Sadly, just having the diploma does not mean that you learned much or
even
that they tried to teach you much.
