TEXT A
The University in transformation, edited by Australian futurists Sohail
Inayatullah and Jennifer Gidley, presents some 20 highly varied outlooks on

standardized curriculum, such a “college education in a box” could undersell
the offerings of many traditional brick and mortar institutions, effectively
driving then out of business and throwing thousands of career academics out of
work, note Australian communications professors David Rooney and Greg Hearn.
