iSchool University of Washington

Technology moves fast, just like information does. One of my own old technical prejudices I didn't notice until I visited Berkeley's iSchool - I asked how they re-wired the fabulous old South Hall, built in 1873. "Re-wire? We didn't need to," they told me, "It's all wireless."

From the Chronicle of Higher Education is an interesting article on the value of graduating: http://chronicle.com/temp/email2.php?id=wWwv6kBkcTbYktwbjrJkskjtdhknjqvf

Hmmm that article doesn't appear any more - perhaps it isn't recommended to be so critical of higher education putting people in unending debt to a loan they can never get out of - kind of like the buyout of collapsed financial institutions in progress now in the US.
