TEDxRyersonU - Dr. Alan Shepard - Think Different: Why Universities Need to Change

The university as an institution has existed for 1000 years but contemporary pressures are demanding that they change. Dr. Alan Shepard will give examples of how universities ought to transform and touch upon ways Ryerson University, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, is thinking different. In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience.
