Higher Education Has Lost a Champion of Innovation

Dr. Clayton Christensen passed away in January at far too young an age. He was an advocate of innovation in higher education, particularly distance learning.

In today’s Martin Center article, entrepreneur Robert Luddy offers an appreciation of Christensen’s work.
