June 2024 Strategic-Leadership Seminar: National Trends in Higher Education

Monday, June 3 - 11:00 a.m., ET

Even before the pandemic hit, higher education was in the midst of significant changes to its demographics, finances, and competitive context. Covid-19 has accelerated some of those trends and altered others. Staying informed about this shifting environment is critical to understanding your institution’s strategy, and to making strategic decisions for your department.

Join us for this 60-minute session to discuss key trends in higher education and its economic and policy context, moderated by a current department chair.

In this session, you will learn:

• How to address and adapt to a shifting enrollment and budgetary landscape.
• Strategies for equitably serving the emerging majority of students who are older, working, have earned credits elsewhere, or are from minority or lower-income backgrounds.
• What the boom in non-degree credentials means for department chairs.
• How a chair can engage with new developments in curriculum design, teaching and learning, and student supports.

Panelist:

• Martin Kurzweil, Vice President, Educational Transformation, Ithaka S+R

Moderator:

• Catharine Bond Hill, Managing Director, Ithaka S+R
