| Abstract | Why American universities are the best in the world -- American universities are challenged as never before -- Strategy is critical, and very difficult -- Students are not customers -- Faculty are not employees -- University leadership: more complicated and more critical than ever -- Academic medicine: the elephant in the room -- Economic development is no longer optional -- The case for both basic research and entrepreneurship -- An education and a job -- Framing the conversation -- Rebuilding the partnership. Americans from all walks of life are losing confidence in American higher education and their numbers are increasing at an alarming rate. Amidst this decline in public support, many American colleges and universities now must confront an unstainable business model. Holden Thorp and Buck Goldstein address these problems head on, articulating the real challenges facing higher education and describing in pragmatic terms what can and cannot change - and what should and should not change. |
