In my opinion in every country higher education should be partly in English and no one should graduate from university without decent English skills and capability to discuss his own field of science with foreign colleagues. This is not a threat to the native language.
Leave the past to specialists and concentrate on teaching both modern Turkish and English to the whole nation. (Don´t forget minority languages either.)
main education language should be always the native language of that country. french for france, chinese for china, turkish for turkey. a perfect foreign language education necessary for educated people to interact the world. education in foreign language classes may be opened for foreign students. after getting their lessons fully in turkish language, turkish students may get the same lessons in a foreign language.
it is strange that in turkey, in a turkish university, by a turkish teacher, to the turkish students education in english only! (not english education, education in english) books may be in many foreign languages but i think education language, speaking in the class and exams, should be always in native language. otherwise we may turn into africa!
