What College Presidents Think About Costs, Access, and Quality
Chronicle of Higher Education News Blog
November 11, 2008
A new report documents the views of more than two dozen college presidents. Most of the presidents believe that to improve the quality of education, more money needs to be put into the system, and that cutting costs in higher education, conversely, would eventually lead to declines in quality or access. The college presidents also believe much of the "heavy lifting" will need to be done by governments putting more money into higher education, by families paying more in tuition, and by private businesses entering into more partnerships with colleges.
