Challenges facing universities today

“The first challenge is the shifting boundary conditions of truth. Universities are in the business of producing experts, knowledge & information and policy advice. Truth shifting is largely due to a growth in anti-intellectualism and a growth in populism where people choose what they want to believe. This has enormous implications for the way in which universities function and the way in which they relate more broadly to society."
