I think they are well aware of how few hours they have to teach physics. The debate is more, which classes can be dropped and replaced with a math course, in order that the students can have a deeper understanding of the underlying math?
More specifically, which of thermodynamics, optics, particle/nuclear physics, solid state, lab courses, E&M, classical mechanics, or quantum mechanics do you think should be dropped from the physics requirement, and which math course should replace it?
Or should the liberal arts requirements be reduced? Or should physics become a 5 year program?
