Over the years, I’ve worked on a number of semantics projects. While some of them involved pulling data from relational databases, one thing that seemed to emerge was that a significant proportion of the metadata within an organization – the operational data that controls everything from movie production to publications to describing businesses – ultimately ended up residing in spreadsheets, specifically, Excel spreadsheets.
Education, especially college education, is facing an existential crisis. Partially due to demographic factors, and in part due to decisions made by policy-makers at national, local, and academic levels, colleges and universities are struggling to stay afloat. What’s more, there are signs that conditions are likely to get far worse for the academic world for at least the next couple of decades.
