The Bankinter Innovation Foundation, a leading Spanish think (and do) tank, asked me to comment on the impact that the covid-19 pandemic will have in universities around the world. My answer (in Spanish) is that this crisis is perhaps the most transformative event in the history of higher education and that some of its long lasting effects will be for the better (“Esta crisis nos ayudará a cambiar para mejor”). Thanks to my daughter Emilia for the interview and to my wife Beth for the camera work! Some of my thoughts (and my daughter's) were also reported by Cinco Días, the economic daily of El País (in Spanish).
