Though I long for serious critical dialogue on
PSA, I have yet to receive it. So, in proper academic form, as a philosopher, I
must independently generate criticisms. Here is one potential criticism of my
alternative model for HE: The Professional Society of Academics (PSA) cannot facilitate the full spectrum of work
performed by professors. False. In fact, it can do so better than the traditional
HEI model or the emerging tech-models (e.g., MOOCs). Moreover, PSA can provide
greater control over and better compensation for this work, while it opens the
doors to as many individuals as want to be professors.
