I think that any student motivated enough to seek control of their life long scholarship, may, with these types of technological and social advances, no longer see value added in university attendance if the university stays the way it is. Where once concerned faculty could suggest a course, a club, or a personal contact, those same opportunities are becoming global and exist with or without the university. There is no guidance, though; no plan, no assessment, no oversight. Are you thinking virtual mentors? A student prepared course of study with suggested routes of social participation? I'm just guessing what the scenario would be, but it sounds like the sort of university that I might attend.
