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?

I consider disassembling military alliances that have existed for decades to be radical. I consider shitting on all of our allies to be radical. I consider sucking up to Russia to be radical...and criminal. And what the fuck is with Alex Jones becoming mainstream? The man is radical even by radical standards. Trump absolutely is a radical.

Getting along with Russia is called diplomacy. Weren't you talking shit just as far back as 2016 about wanting America to get along with the rest of the world? You know Western Europe doesn't constitute "the rest of the world", yeah? What was your position on allowing Russia to go in and take Crimea? Stop them by force or talk to them?
Which is all to say: you're full of shit and would say the exact opposite if it were your team in office doing the exact same things.

Punishing Russia over the shit they've pulled over the last decade or so is also diplomacy. From their corrupt business practices, to their invasion of Ukraine and Georgia, to their human rights violations, to the assassinations of enemies of the oligarchs... Russia is run by criminals. And Trump is delivering to the Russians everything they want. I'm amazed you actually think this is partisan issue.

I think it's a partisan issue because what goes on in Russia is none of my concern but the left, who generally want nothing to do with international confrontation of any kind, suddenly become hawks on Russia. Wait, have I mistaken you? Are you one of those GW fanbois who think we should go around the world making them all act like us?
