The college business model, says Mitch Daniels, is all wrong and deserves to be toppled. He will be watching closely a Georgia Institute of Technology plan to offer an online master's degree in computer science next year. It will cost just $7,000, versus as much as $60,000 for the traditional course. Source: Bloomberg
