Michael Munger on the Future of Higher Education 8/17/20
Музыка
In this 750th (!) episode Duke University's Michael Munger talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about whether the pandemic might create an opportunity for colleges and universities to experiment and innovate. Munger is Professor of Political Science, Economics and Public Policy at Duke. He believes "top" schools can emerge from the current period of uncertainty to thrive in the long run. The path for "second-tier" institutions could be more difficult. They will still face the challenges that existed before the pandemic: competition from online classes and a shrinking pool of new applicants ready to pay high tuition bills.

After listening every EconTalk episode to date, I just had to some see what the all time reigning champ Mike Munger looked like, rather awesome to see you two sharing ideas, speaking/listening, surreal having never seen ether of your body language while bantering/exchanging ideas.. very enjoyable format, albeit not the best for consuming while driving to/from work (my normal method). Keep it all up, love it!

Could you add a link to the essay referred to in the podcast - the one that discusses the bell tower, the stadium, the admissions office, etc...?
