Watched IVORY TOWER during lunch and commute today (iTunes rental). Very interesting look at the state of higher education in the US. Has good coverage of the rise (and relative fall) of MOOCs. The documentary never really touches on the root problems of chaining higher education to level entry employment though, which was never the intention of tertiary studies. Its also quite clear that many Unis are now being run like corporations with heads being paid like CEOs, which is just ridiculous. The film is worth a look by anyone who works in education or is interested in the US university system. https://youtube/watch?v=BjfwnBuj3O0
