For once McGraw-Hill does something right that can have a positive impact on students at a university by buying Tegrity's service which acts, in part, as a fully search-able digital video recorder for the classroom, enabling colleges and universities to automatically record every class for review by students anytime and anywhere. I spent years as a student at universities and also was married to a professor of chemistry at one and it is well past the time that the lectures should be recorded for viewing and also the accountability of professors actions and the quality of their lectures. This will make the tenured lazy professors get off their @$$ and begin to give students a decent lecture. This is a product well over due for the system and will cut down on the arrogance of professors who are over controlling and in many cases down right perverts in the USA university system. The USA university system unfortunately due to the tenured status of professors and upper management, become a haven for perverted behavior toward students (in private of course) because they know they can not be fired from their job. Like medical doctors in the USA the system is controlled buy the “good old boys” club mentality where they protect each other. Getting their lectures on video is a start to breaking this perverted behavior down.
This will not save McGraw-Hill from the coming crash in its stock price due to the imploding world economies and the company's own greed and mismanagement in diversification in other companies where it should not be. The days of the huge flashy and very expensive paper textbooks and their rip off authors is coming to an end. As stated in my website about McGraw-Hill the company will survive and it will go back to the basics, combined with modern technology that will end up saving it after the crash is over. The Tegrity service could be such an innovation I have described if it is managed correctly without the greed factor of the past. For a fuller view of this read my other post on the message boards and my free website, http://fallofthehouseofmcgrawhill.com/ and sell MHP now if you own the stock and buy it back when I do some where south of $1.00 per share in 3-5 years when the collapse is complete.
