Meeting : Lehmann “Brothers”??

Meeting : Lehmann "Brothers"??

It was in the year 2008, America's Biggest Financial bubble burst, when the Sub prime Mortgage crisis took down, one of the biggest and most powerful Financial Firm Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. Bursting of this  bubble, surfaced the lapses of the current financial systems, which have Institutionalized their processes to serve the Interest of their Stockholders, Investors, over its traditional position of an institution. With lofty compensations for their Executives, reflect underlying systemic problem of American Greed : which the author in his book described as abuse, overindulgence, and irresponsibility.

With Student Debt in America reaching more than One Trillion dollars, is it another Financial Bubble about to break. Well I am too small to see that coming, but surely wise enough to know, that Academia is about to be Disrupted. This idea stems from reading "Economics of Knowledge", which explains how does Knowledge work and also another book that strongly influences these ideas are "Innovative University", which helps one understand the Paradigm - Shift taking place, with constantly changing Information Communication Technology landscape. Unfortunately, many primitive universities, such as Johns Hopkins, have heavily invested in its physical infrastructure, especially for its Administrative affairs, that it has lost site of reality.

It is the "disillusion" of its prestige that attracts many Indian, Chinese, Nigerians, Philippine students to this campus, has got me further annoyed. But more than that the handicapped faculties of contemporary times, frustrates me to see how President Gilliam of former times, whose words have been forgotten by all. His Twelve points instead of being cherished, and used for philosophical discourse, had been sidelined by lame governors, who have very expensive bureaucracy to manage. By sucking resources from the world.
