During an interview about GradeGuru, Dr. Keith Hampson, founder of the Higher Education Management group, asked Emily Sawtell the following questions:

1. As I suggested in a previous post, your business model requires that much of the curriculum being taught at universities be common. Otherwise, the number of other students that can use the uploaded notes is highly limited. Is this an accurate assumption?
2. In a recent news story, an academic suggested that note-sharing is ethically questionable. Another wondered if it violated intellectual property standards. How does GradeGuru address these potential problems?
3. Trust is a major factor when deciding to share notes. When I borrowed notes in college (often), I didn’t ask ‘just anyone”: I selected someone I knew to be a good student (invariably a women). How can GradeGuru facilitate trust amongst its users?
4. What led you to this current role with GradeGuru?
