Personal Statement: Industry is moving or will be moving to the Virtual Industry Concept, where the prospective students' needs can be met. (Those needs being spending more time with their families, etc.) Therefore, more employees are remodling their basements and attics to serve as "home offices." Digital communication is making this all possible.
