32 - Scott Galloway: The Future of Higher Education

View descriptionShare

“A Crisis Is A Terrible Thing To Waste” - The Future Of Higher Education with NYU professor, author, and podcaster Scott Galloway.

Parents, educators, students, and administrators are trying to figure out what’s going to happen with colleges this fall.  Will classes be on campus, online, or be offered as some kind of hybrid experience?

Professor Scott Galloway has addressed these questions on CNN, Twitter, in his No Mercy No Malice newsletter and now he sits with the Meet Me in the Middle panel to discuss the best practices for the future of higher education.
