I disagree with just about every position that the author made. To be brief, I'll only counter the author's main position: "The internet, along with all the other improvements have made the process of finding and acquiring information at cost approaching zero so trivial that the schools now seem out of place." I say that this is exactly the reason why we will need schools even more so. The overwhelming amount of information necessitates a subject matter expert that can cut through the fads and focus on the first principles and fundamentals.
Secondly, any person who advocates for using Wikipedia as a primary source is clearly an idiot who has no appreciation or capability of primary source research.
