The Washington Post ran an op-ed by Warren Bennis of the USC Marshall School and Distinguished Fellow about college presidents embracing new technology and innovative teaching techniques. “Having just completed a national search to find a successor to USC’s president, Steven B. Sample, I had the opportunity to review countless resumes and interview a fair number of sitting presidents and provosts,” Bennis wrote. He added that it’s no accident the person chosen was USC President-Elect C.L. Max Nikias, “a doctorate in electrical engineering and a maven of all manner of innovative technologies and teaching methods.”
