Be Careful What You Wish For

Apr 09, 2001

Opinion article which makes some good points. Educators have long wish for increased access tgo education, lifelong learning and information technology. But the college and university system is ill prepared to cope with these. To wit, "most four-year colleges and universities have not provided "unbundled" content and courses from structured degree programs; rather, they have placed these offerings at the periphery in business schools and engineering programs via executive education, extension programs and other services." By Kenneth C. Green, Converge Mag, April 2, 2001.
