It will be interesting to see if there is an uptake by employers of (cheaper?) employees who have gained knowledge/education via free/cheap online courses.
In my experience of a couple of CompSci online courses they appear to be as effective (if not more) in imparting knowledge and skills. When employers can identify this and start to treat completion of these these courses with the same level of importance as from a "real" university then maybe things will start to change.
The only thing I can see that will challenge this is the cultural indoctrination that seems to be part of the more esteemed universities. How much of the decision to employ somebody from a Harvard or MIT is knowing that the employee has been indoctrinated to think in a particular way?
