What Is a Degree For Now?

​If you could go back, would you still get this degree?

​

​As AI changes what students can accomplish and what employers expect, it's worth asking what we're actually paying for when we pursue higher education.

​

​Is it the skills? The credential? The network? Or the transformation that happens along the way?

​

​For our third Campus Conversation, students from different disciplines will discuss what universities should preserve, reconsider, and reinvent.

​

​We'll explore:

​

​- If AI can perform many of the tasks we're studying, what makes our education valuable?

​- What should students still learn without assistance?

​- If universities were invented today, what would they look like?

​

​An honest conversation about the future of education, from the people living through it.
