Why Harvard and Yale Had to Merge is Jane Shaw’s future history timeline of the events leading up to the May 2020 merger of Harvard and Yale:

That same day, faculty members at the University of Phoenix issued a report analyzing the cataclysmic changes that had occurred in higher education over the past ten years. They traced the history back to a New York Times columnist, Ron Lieber, and two articles he wrote in 2010 and 2011. They dubbed him the “short seller” of higher education.
