There are over 4,000 colleges and universities in the United States, but Harvard Business School professor Clayton Christensen says that half are bound for bankruptcy in the next few decades.
Christensen is known for coining the theory of disruptive innovation in his 1997 book, "The Innovator's Dilemma." Since then, he has applied his theory of disruption to a wide range of industries, including education.
In his recent book, "The Innovative University," Christensen and co-author Henry Eyring analyze the future of traditional universities, and conclude that online education will become a more cost-effective way for students to receive an education, effectively undermining the business models of traditional institutions and running them out of business.
What percentage of their graduates will be bankrupt?

Do please specify that you mean "economic egalitarianism" in the future as it directly contradicts actual egalitarianism which advocates economic equality of opportunity rather than outcome.

It is about an egalitarian view on society. Think of it as in the French motto: Liberté, égalité, fraternité.
However, you might need to get an education before you can correctly interpret the concepts behind the French motto. But then you'd need deep pockets to pay for that education. I'd prefer the commons to pay for the privilege of understanding by means of education.

Again, that is economic egalitarianism not egalitarianism. You would know this if you sourced knowledge from multiple places rather than only from professors who lean to the extreme left.
