Kerr proposes shortening programs for capable students from four to three years and trimming Ph.D. and M.D. durations by one or two years. A two year M.A. would be generally available, new M. Phil. added between M.A. and Ph.D., and a D.A. on the Ph.D. level with heavier teaching emphasis. He argues current practice trains researchers then assigns teaching, which confuses and undermines instruction.
