Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 October 2023
I conclude by referencing the draconian scenario proposed by Ronald Musto in a recent book in which he suggested the possibility that the modern university would collapse and disappear in much the same manner as did the medieval monastery in sixteenth-century Britain. I suggest that while this is unlikely to happen, the current crisis should not be minimized and action should be taken to begin to restructure the university system, while resisting calls for total disruption and adapting the humanities and the liberal arts to the needs of the future.
