Today's Buggy Topic

. . . Is, as the subject-title indicates, strictly limited to some tossed-out personal observations about universities in the US and Europe, based on my experience here and in Britain, France, Germany, and Switzerland.  Believe me, nothing profound; even so, , maybe worth your while to look them over.

Those observations appear in a thread at the Marginal Revolution, a very good economist web-site run by an uncommonly flexible libertarian economist, Professor Tyler Cowen of George Mason University in Virginia.  Click here for the thread.
