Was this written in 1970? There is no acknowledgement of the extensive literature and scores of initiatives that need to be consulted. Professors/Admins do not "cross-pollinate;" insects do!

Such an inspiring vision for higher education. Looking to developing a new way of educating our young people, the future generation. Too long academic disciplines have been stuck in their own lanes and limiting their experience of the new world we are all now inhabiting. So excited to watch developments at UL.
