Educator forecasts far reaching education changes at Auburn

Dr William John Ellena associate secretary of the American Association of School Administrators spoke at Auburn University predicting 30 year shifts in education. He said enrollments of 100 000 to 200 000 for colleges and universities and a shift to age 20 compulsory schooling with two years beyond high school funded by the federal government. He warned television will shape public opinion and demand public control while a global culture with diverse religions and a common language emerges. Psychiatry and emotional health will grow in importance as diseases decline and education evolves in motion rather than stability.
