Now That Information Is Free, What's a College Campus For?
An essay published on Commonedge asks what purpose physical college campuses serve in an era when knowledge is freely available online. With lectures, books and courses accessible to anyone with an internet connection, the piece examines whether universities still justify their cost and campus model, and what value in-person education offers beyond information transfer, such as mentorship, community and credentialing. Readers are debating whether higher education's core function needs rethinking.
Why now: Rising tuition costs and free online learning are prompting renewed debate about the value of traditional universities.
