We should continue to see both non‐ traditional (e.g. SNHU) and traditional institutions (e.g. U Florida) evolve and expand

  • nline offerings
  • But with changes in overall competition for

students.

  • With demand for new pedagogical and

student support models.

  • And increasing demand for improved
  • utcomes.
