Fascinating. On the one hand, a lot of talk around liberal education. On the other, that classic theory/practice debate.

Will gaming become older media's younger sibling, then?

I don't really see that, myself, at least not from the production side, because computers and coding are such a prominent component. But it does seem like game studies is overlapping with existing media studies in many institutions. Perhaps we'll see a more demarcated split between studies and game design in a way we haven't seen with film and TV (not that film and TV aren't fairly demarcated at lots of schools; but they're still usually in the same department when they're both available).
