What is the future of higher education?

Most people already know that higher education will have to change the way it does business in the future. Rising costs, technology, and other factors will continue to have an influence on the way colleges do business.  However, one of the comments in this article that stood out to me was the following: "For academia and industry alike, the greatest challenge may actually be in creating lifelong learners out of students and professionals. With a rapidly changing marketplace, "the real need for education in the economy will be re-education." Of course, creating lifelong learners has always been a goal of GPS, and that is only one of the reasons our girls do so well in college and beyond.
