On March 20, the ZSR Library hosted a two-hour conversation entitled “The Big Disruption: The Coming Transformation of Higher Education.” Dean Lynn Sutton moderated the discussion featuring panelists Provost Rogan Kersh, WFU Vice President of Career Development Andy Chan and Michael Riley ’81, who is editor of the Chronicle of Higher Education. The event was well attended by nearly 200 WFU students, faculty and staff, as well as others interested in higher education. The moderator posed questions on topics as varied as the future of tenure and the influence of MOOCs. Audience members also engaged the panel in Q-and-A. The conversation was lively and the responses thoughtful. In case you missed it, you can watch a video of the event or read the Twitter feed.
