To choose the latter option, however, we need to envision what universities of the future will look like—​if they exist at all.

This article is very helpful to me, as a rising senior. Technology is becoming more and more important, but prospective students do not alway know how to evaluate the technology of the university. These trends are excellent discussion topics when asking an admissions representative questions. The status of technology at the school I end up going to, will affect how, what, when, and where I learn. Knowing these trends, I will be ahead of the game of what to look for.
