1 | Distance Education is technically sound -- both synchronously and asynchronously -- today with very robust clear implementations available over next 2 years |
2 | Separate teaching mentoring and dormitory role of University |
3 | Teaching and grading naturally performed by centers of excellence which need at least an order of magnitude more customers than a single faculty in order to be able to justify investment in course preparation and maintenance |
4 | Continuing Education of growing importance and natural area to attack first -- corporate training is serious competition here and commercial deliverers have advantage? |
5 | Not obvious that will save large amounts of money as students will need more not less mentoring in today's information-overrich world -- quality of educational experience will become more uniform and better |
