Podcast: Morris W. Beverage Jr. - Today's Clash of Cultures on Campuses and the Role IT Needs to PlayCreated by Gerry Bayne (EDUCAUSE) on March 20, 2009
This hour and three minute podcast features a keynote address by Morris W. Beverage Jr., President of Lakeland Community College. The speech, "Today's Clash of Cultures on Campuses and the Role IT Needs to Play," was delivered at the NERCOMP 2009 Conference in Providence, Rhode Island. Campuses today face a growing number of clashing cultures. Faculty struggle with traditional methods of teaching in an environment where demands for flexibility and convenience are rising. Learners increasingly treat a college degree like a commodity. Battles rage over resource allocation. External constituents exert influence on campus operations and outcomes. This session addresses these issues and the role IT departments need to play to help higher education not just survive, but thrive.
