Some of these predictions - like "online education will become the norm rather than the step-sister of "traditional" education" - are a bit ahead of their time. Others - like "forget hyflex" - are well-reasoned and make sense. Still others - like "be ready for the unknown", "build off threads that are here to stay", "we should expect further disruption" and "look for the advantage" - are too vague to qualify as predictions. Others - like "move beyond Zoon into the Metaverse" - aren't realistic. Some - like "The campus leaders who have intentionally put students at the center of organization and system design will reap a great reward" - are no better than astrology. Finally, "integrating a bit of what could happen as well as what should happen" is great but not a prediction.
