In search of life on (the virtual) campus

Rather we should worry about what kind of education these Virtual U’s are going to serve up. I am afraid I know the answer: the same old stuff they have been serving, only this time there will be no football, no fraternity parties, and nobody to b.s. with until three in the morning. It is reasonable to ponder how living in an isolating society is going to get even more so, but that is not our issue here. No one will stop this rolling freight train. But giving the train a reasonable direction wouldn’t be a bad idea.

EDGE: ROGER SCHANK

Well, it’s been a while since Roger Schank spoke these words about “Virtual U’s,” but I’m afraid the rolling freight train has yet to find a reasonable direction.

Anyone happen to know the name of UoP’s football mascot or whether there are any fraternity parties going on this weekend on (the virtual) campus?
