In this presentation we will hear from Scot Baker about the issues surrounding colleges, their failure to equip students for the workforce, and the resulting outcome of H1B visa holders taking high-paying jobs from Americans. Colleges are fake ecosystems propped up by predatory federal lending and shielded from real free-market consequences. They have inflicted massive damage on the country, trapping young people in a bleak, rigged future of debt, delayed or denied family formation, and limited economic mobility. Colleges are manufacturing both economic damage and political realignment with the “left”.
Reform is not optional — it is essential. Texas is the one state strong enough to lead the way.
Texas can save the next generation from a lifetime of debt and disillusionment. Once we reform our colleges all others will follow.

About Scot Baker:
Scot Baker is a veteran technology recruiter and founder of ProTek Partners, with over 20 years of direct experience in the U.S. enterprise technology labor market. Since beginning his career in 2003—and making his first H-1B placement in 2004—he has had a front-row seat to one of the most significant workforce shifts in modern economic history: the sustained reliance on foreign-born labor to fill critical enterprise application roles in the United States.
Through ProTek Partners, Scot has worked closely with CIOs, IT leaders, and enterprise organizations across industries, evaluating thousands of technologists and analyzing hiring patterns at scale. His firm is differentiated by its use of actual technologists to assess candidates, providing a level of technical validation and market insight that goes far beyond traditional recruiting models.
Over the past decade, Scot has systematically tracked and analyzed publicly available labor market data—primarily through LinkedIn and enterprise hiring trends—building a large-scale, evidence-based view of workforce supply and demand in enterprise applications such as SAP, Workday, Oracle, Salesforce, and ServiceNow.
He has presented these findings to policymakers across Texas, including members of both political parties, highlighting what he believes is a structural failure: U.S. colleges have not aligned curriculum with the largest, federally driven demand for technical labor created by Sarbanes-Oxley and enterprise system adoption.
Scot’s perspective is grounded not in theory, but in two decades of direct market exposure, data analysis, and real hiring outcomes. His work focuses on identifying systemic gaps between education and industry—and proposing practical, high-return solutions to close them.
