our reporters martin giles from m.i.t. technology review and john swart of dow jones this week on press here. good morning. there is a push by car makers to take the steering wheel out of self-driving cars and the brake pedal and everything else. this is not a insane as it sounds. the thing b about an autonomous car is if it's working properly, the driver has nothing to drive. at in turn means the human behind the wheel is probably not paying enough attention to cake control if that became necessary. bottom line say engineers say if you're going to drive, fine. grab b the wheel, look out the window and drive. if you're not going to drive, if you're going to sort of monitor the situation and let the car do the work then let the r car do the work. the theory is the driver becomes a liability not an asset in this situation. jimmy carl son is one of the world's leading experts on self-driving cars. he's workeded at tesla, curiously at apple as well. and is now the vice president of out information at neo, a chinese car company

at a number of prominent universities, columbia, m.i.t., trying to think of where else, have applied with the federal government to change their official classification. it is a funny little thing i didn't even know existed. but you can -- has to do with various bureaucratic ways of higher education, classified and accredited. economics departments are reclassifying them receives as s.t.e.m. fields. like engineering or physics or chemistry. why are they doing that? well, i think part of it is even liberal economists who are data driven, they look around at the other social sciences and humanities and say we don't want to be in the college of arts and sciences with these loanons. we would rather be in a more rigorous part of the university. i think you're already seeing a de facto divorce in universities taking place where rapidly -- especially big research universities, moving toward a situation where you're going to have the -- a university that is s.t.e.m. subjects, economics, business, prelaw to the extent that's still done in a self-conscious way and political science and the res
