Hi Billy, You also overlook the fact that most of the cost structure of a university is not course delivery. They can't adopt cost- effective methods for full- time students because entry-level rote courses subsidize everything else. That's why the whole business model needs to be challenged.
Yes, there is real value in live residential education. But most schools don't actually deliver that value, and will collapse under the new economic reality. I'm just trying to hurry that up. :-) The schools of the future will all have to actually earn their keep, not just fake it.
