In Kevin Carey's new book, "The End of College," he writes "The story of higher education's future is a tale of ancient institutions in their last days of decadence creating the seeds of a new world to come."

Carey argues that the days of four-year degrees, all-things-to-all-people hybrid universities and ineffective instruction must end.

Carey joined MPR News' Kerri Miller to talk about his book.
