Four years ago, Microsoft Founder Bill Gates predicted that technology and the Internet would make “place-based colleges” less relevant and bring down the cost of a college education to just $2,000. Now, students around the world tend to agree, with many citing a belief that the university of the future will be accessible, flexible, innovative and job-focused, with a particular emphasis on lifelong learning. That’s according to a new survey commissioned by Laureate International and performed by Zogby Analytics, which found students predict a future where classes will be offered at various times throughout the day and year.
