Abstract | The future of higher education and its relationship to economic growth were the focus of a one-day conference at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago on November 2, 2005. Cosponsored by the bank, the Committee on Institutional Cooperation, and the Midwestern Higher Education Compact, the event brought together over 100 academic, business, and government leaders. In opening remarks, Michael Moskow noted that although the relationship between education, productivity, and economic growth has never been clearer, financial support for higher education has waned while costs have continued to rise. Speakers included Wick Sloane, Michael McPherson, B. Joseph White, Lou Anna Simon, and Richard Saller. Paul Courant, Richard Vedder, and Robert Silberman offered perspectives on the costs of higher education. James Duderstadt spoke on adapting to the knowledge economy. Larry Isaak, Ray Holmberg, Eddie Dunn, Joseph Chapman, and Roger Rierson described the work of the North Dakota Roundtable on Higher. The conference indicated that traditional models of higher education finance and service delivery are under stress. Declining state financial support and changing student demographics require new service delivery models. (Contains 4 notes and 2 tables.) [For condensed report, "Higher education and Economic Growth.
