Campaign for the Future of Higher Ed

Overview

The Campaign for the Future of Higher Education

May 10, 2011

The Campaign for the Future of Higher Education is being launched...

A - To guarantee that affordable quality higher education is accessible to all sectors of our society in the coming decades, and

B - To include the voices of the faculty, students and our communities—not just administrators, politicians, foundations and think tanks—in the process of making change to ensure that the emphasis, curriculum, pricing, and structure of our nation's higher education systems are good for our students and the quality of education they receive.

What is at stake is nothing less than our democracy and our economic standing in the global economy.

See the campaign mission statement.
