A Decade Ago, The Chronicle Envisioned Higher Education in 2015. How’d We Do? - Goldie Blumenstyk, Chronicle of Higher Ed

In 2005 a team of Chronicle reporters and editors undertook a reporting experiment to predict the state of higher education 10 years in the future. We based that series of articles, "Higher Education 2015: How Will the Future Shake Out?," on seemingly durable trends, available data, and some educated guessing by dozens of experts. Actually, a lot of what was predicted came true. But the forecasts hit the mark for the worst-case scenarios more often than for the best-case ones. http://chronicle.com/article/A-Decade-Ago-The-Chronicle/233874
