    We know a good deal about the contents of this article arlready, but its a TIME article and it links to some interesting studies and polls. http://nation.time.com/2012/10/18/higher-education-poll/?pcd=teaser and this should encourage us, as we pay through the nose for this education: David Stavens (Udacity's co-founder, and Stanford alum) concedes. "I think the top 50 schools are probably safe," he says. "There's a magic that goes on inside a university campus that, if you can afford to live inside that bubble, is wonderful." ... I agree with Mr. Stavens . I hope you do too. See you in class!

    That's not just any university--that's ACU (go wildcats)! In fact, I was working at the copy shop and made the copies for the original proposal of the initiative. I also attended the conference they held last year to share research about the program. If you're interested, just let me know and I can talk about what they had to say at the conference.
