Wave analysis of higher-education trends
Mar. 19th, 2011 02:08 pmWow! You can use candlestick analysis on *anything*! Here is a chart showing that college/university enrollment is probably going to fall at least 20% over the next decade. I thought that higher ed was "overbought" back when I was there in the 80's; too many kids were going who really couldn't benefit from it and all they got was a "flunked out of college" for their résumé. This chart says the problem has gotten markedly worse since then, but the same long-term oscillations that led to the rise will soon cause a "correction" in the college attendance "market".
