In the face of rising costs and increasingly tech-savvy students, is being “paperless” a reality in higher education?
In a recent survey by Harris Poll on behalf of Ricoh, two in three Americans said college students couldn’t function without using paper daily¹ On the other hand, the same survey found that 48 percent of respondents expect universities to go paperless within a few years. Given that split, what does the future hold for higher education? And is the idea of a 100% paper student going to become reality?
Students generate enormous amounts of data on the administrative side throughout their college careers.
