I don't know. The authors of this book make the mistaken assumption that people go to college to get educated.

Many, many people go to college to delay the onset of adulthood. So unless "online learning" comes with fraternities, spring break at Daytona Beach, and "safe spaces" in cyberspace, I think the forecast here in this book is all wrong.

Don’t forget the perception among most young people of college being the only qualifier for a “good” or even marginal job.
