'Revolution in Higher Education' - Scott Jaschik, Inside Higher Ed

Richard DeMillo is Charlotte B. and Roger C. Warren Chair of Computing and director of the Center for 21st Century Universities at the Georgia Institute of Technology. He's authored a new book from MIT, Revolution in Higher Education: How a Small Band of Innovators Will Make College Accessible and Affordable. Middle-tier, public universities and small private colleges that subsist primarily on tuition are in deep, deep trouble. You can see this in declining applications and declining enrollments. Students, when given a choice, will choose what they think is quality. Price is a factor but is not really the critical factor. https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2015/10/07/author-discusses-his-new-book-revolution-higher-education
