What IBM Thinks

From Jim Spohrer, Director, IBM University Programs World-Wide - - as quoted in the December 17, 2010 issue of The Chronicle of Higher Education:

"Help students be more interdisciplinary.  Knowledge workers today need a combination of skills that spans technology, business, and social sciences.  This requires three distinct parts of universities to work together and bridge their siloed boundaries."

"Find better ways to encourage faculty who are boundary-spanners."

"Provide faculty and students more opportunities to connect locally and globally."
