This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.
Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

I teach a science course at a PUG. 20% of my students will not even attempt to answer short answer questions on exams. I don't believe they know how to write.
what is PUG?
Primarily UnderGraduate. We have some masters and doctoral programs but no medical or law school and no animal research. It's larger and more comprehensive than a SLAC - Small Liberal Arts College. The next step up is either a comprehensive or research university depending on your country.
