    Looks tidier. Eight Master's with eight pending. Maybe some other new offerings.

    So much for MOOCs killing off universities. ;)

    Yeah, I'm glad that I've made no predictions. As Yogi said, predictions are hard and especially about the future.

    It took them several years, but they've finally figured out that employers will not give MOOC certificates the same weight as college degrees.

    I think they should have value for people in staff positions who need to know more of the industry they serve.

    They probably should. But I think Sanantone's right, it turned out that they generally just don't.
