The current campus-based, semester-delivery model is unlikely to sustain itself into the next century--efforts to future-proof campuses will pay off. In any ecosystem, if one waits long enough, eventually a cataclysmic disruption occurs. The final years at Blockbuster Video, Kodak Corporation, and Toys “R” Us, all share the consistent systemic failure to respond to disruptive threats: a willful ignorance to reexamine and adjust their product, services, and business model. Higher education is behaving much the same way. Until institutions acknowledge both the impending disruptive threat and the risk of not appropriately responding, higher ed remains a vulnerable enterprise.
