“Nearly one-third of the world’s population (29.3%) is under 15. Today there are 158 million people enrolled in tertiary education1. Projections suggest that that participation will peak at 263 million2 in 2025. Accommodating the additional 105 million students would require more than four major universities (30,000 students) to open every week for the next fifteen years.

Partner with Legislators who care about:
(a) efficient use of national / state
tax dollars; (b) saving students money;
(c) increasing access to education
• Cooperate & share = We all Win– Faculty have new choices when building
learning spaces.– …the more eyes on a problem, the greater
chance for a solution.• Affordability: students can’t afford
textbooks• Self-interest: good things happen
when I share• It’s a social justice issue: everyone
should have the right to access digital knowledge.
Why is “Open” Important?
