This book discusses the challenges and issues facing America's colleges and universities as we enter a period of change and reform. Thinking About American Higher Education explores three major imperatives that will drive the future. First, colleges and universities must respond to six critical challenges: minority participation; financing quality education; replacing quality faculty; affordability; institutional ethics; and national competitiveness. Secondly, strong leadership is required at both the institutional and state government levels. And thirdly, changing regional economies will require certain institutions to foster new forms of higher education.
