FreshEd #398 – University Futures (Cris Shore)

What this episode covers

Today we dive into universities and their futures. For many people, universities are in crisis. Public funding has decreased. Mounting pressure to move online and offer complete flexibility to students. Job cuts. And whole courses and programs that are on the chopping block. My guest, Cris Shore, unpacks the state of universities and critically explores their futures. Cris Shore is emeritus professor of anthropology at Goldsmiths, University of London. He’s recently published a book with Susan Wright called Audit Culture: How indicators and rankings are reshaping the world. freshedpodcast.com/shore/ -- Get in touch!
