As part of this blog, I am really documenting the fact that higher education is making changes to curriculum and what they are teaching students. I came across this interesting article about how difficult it is for college and university presidents to make such changes. The writing is pointing out that higher education is struggling and is in need of strong leaders like never before.
The note in the article about how many universities have such a hard time changing what is taught because the professors decide what need to be taught without listening to the potential employers is a scary thought. Yet at the same time, there is a reason they are teaching in the first place. These should be the people that know the industry they are teaching to the finest point, the thought that they are out of touch with current happenings and needs is not positive for the how I feel about paying for an education.
