I have been reviewing university strategies in Scandinavia and there’s a great push to re-inventing the process of program creation –better, quicker, cheaper. This is somewhat like what you are proposing. We don’t have much competition from what you call CUs (by the way that’s a great name for them) but I think in a way it is because of this strategic idea that universities need not operate in geological time.
See you in LA next Monday. As I see the big ship of higher education turning, it seems more and more institutions are considering speeding up their act. Since I never heard of most of your ideas before you articulated them I have to give you credit for some of it.
