Public Universities should work collaboratively with high schools to ensure that the educational standards remain high and consistent with what is required at the University level. Perhaps some responsibility should fall within the K-12 educational system. The public grade school system should provide the fundamental learning to suit each student's need and prepare them for higher education. Several states have attempted to ban remedial courses due to the high cost. Therefore, the money is being spent unwisely on those students who did not go on to earn their degree.
Many students pay thousands of dollars to get an education.
If you move remedial courses to community colleges, the universities will be able to focus more on their students who are college ready and do not need remediation. For example, if the colleges do not have to spend the money to pay for teachers to teach the remedial classes, the money can be spent on more research and also be able to free up class rooms. This would be an advantage for class sizes. Remedial classes in universities should be banned for the welfare of the students who do not need help. Be sure to include your name and affiliation.
