  • 00:00:00
    so this is a once in a lifetime event
  • 00:00:03
    perhaps once in a century event uh
  • 00:00:05
    something we've never faced before
  • 00:00:08
    and the sectors of the economy that are
  • 00:00:10
    most vulnerable
  • 00:00:12
    and are going to be disrupted the most
  • 00:00:15
    are those that have
  • 00:00:16
    haven't had much disruption for the last
  • 00:00:18
    50 or 100 years
  • 00:00:20
    and that is healthcare and higher
  • 00:00:22
    education in the healthcare we're
  • 00:00:23
    already seeing it
  • 00:00:25
    but in higher education we are yet to
  • 00:00:26
    feel how this
  • 00:00:28
    is going to fundamentally alter the way
  • 00:00:30
    we do business
  • 00:00:31
    and part of the reason the disruption is
  • 00:00:33
    happening is because we have built
  • 00:00:35
    systems
  • 00:00:36
    which are not adaptable or resilient we
  • 00:00:40
    have
  • 00:00:42
    taught educated people the same way
  • 00:00:45
    for hundreds of years
  • 00:00:48
    and to do that we have built an
  • 00:00:50
    infrastructure and a business model
  • 00:00:52
    which has
  • 00:00:53
    very high operating leverage of fixed
  • 00:00:55
    costs
  • 00:00:56
    these facilities infrastructure
  • 00:01:00
    faculty are dedicated faculty along
  • 00:01:02
    functional lines
  • 00:01:03
    along disciplines and so they are not
  • 00:01:06
    very adaptable to changing circumstances
  • 00:01:08
    and so all of a sudden one big change is
  • 00:01:11
    going to be
  • 00:01:12
    the rise of online education many
  • 00:01:15
    faculty have never
  • 00:01:16
    dealt with that there's going to be also
  • 00:01:20
    changes
  • 00:01:21
    in what kind of education is offered
  • 00:01:24
    over the next
  • 00:01:24
    decade because the demand for certain
  • 00:01:27
    disciplines is going to decline for
  • 00:01:29
    other disciplines is going to increase
  • 00:01:31
    so it's going to be very important
  • 00:01:33
    for universities to be more flexible and
  • 00:01:35
    adaptable and the way they in the way
  • 00:01:37
    they
  • 00:01:37
    deploy resources and so this is
  • 00:01:40
    it's a sea change it's something we have
  • 00:01:42
    never experienced before
  • 00:01:44
    and hopefully we never experience again
  • 00:01:46
    but what has
  • 00:01:48
    it has done has exposed a big
  • 00:01:50
    vulnerability which is very very high
  • 00:01:52
    operating leverage
  • 00:01:53
    lots of fixed assets if you look at a
  • 00:01:55
    university we have lots of buildings we
  • 00:01:57
    have parking services we have
  • 00:01:58
    administrative support
  • 00:02:01
    we have residential dining halls and
  • 00:02:03
    dorms
  • 00:02:04
    we have student organizations all these
  • 00:02:07
    are
  • 00:02:08
    ancillary to the educational system
  • 00:02:11
    but consume a lot of resources and what
  • 00:02:14
    will happen
  • 00:02:15
    if we go online
  • 00:02:18
    where we don't have students on campus
  • 00:02:20
    or we have fewer students on campus
  • 00:02:23
    our facilities are not scalable and so
  • 00:02:26
    this is a challenge that every
  • 00:02:27
    university is going to face
  • 00:02:28
    and i think the ones that will do best
  • 00:02:31
    are the ones who are ahead
  • 00:02:32
    and developing systems that are more
  • 00:02:33
    resilient and adaptable i'm very
  • 00:02:35
    optimistic i'm very optimistic because
  • 00:02:37
    we have an amazing group of faculty
  • 00:02:40
    so though if you think about what is our
  • 00:02:42
    really most
  • 00:02:43
    important capital
  • 00:02:47
    in a university it is expertise that
  • 00:02:50
    faculty have
  • 00:02:50
    and it's the soft capital which doesn't
  • 00:02:53
    show up on your
  • 00:02:54
    accounting statements but that's the
  • 00:02:56
    most critical
  • 00:02:57
    capital and that we have and what we
  • 00:02:59
    have to do is how do we deploy it
  • 00:03:02
    how do we leverage it and how do we
  • 00:03:04
    deliver it
  • 00:03:05
    for a much better student experience and
  • 00:03:07
    that's what is going to be challenging
  • 00:03:09
    but i'm very optimistic that we have the
  • 00:03:12
    resources that we can
  • 00:03:16
    execute
  • 00:03:21
