Panel

Panel discussion will begin at 12:30.

Join us to consider trends in perceptions of higher education’s value, explore the root causes of the challenge for our industry, and discover the potential impact of our collective action to change the trajectory.

The panel is an opportunity to amplify the voices of leaders and work of institutions in the larger national debate around the value of higher education. Panelists will look at actions that have made a difference in past campaigns that higher education can emulate.

The discussion will also focus on how collectively, colleges and universities can create a narrative around the four areas that college alumni, parents, prospective students, and others stakeholders, see as the most tangible benefits of the college experience:

• Scientific innovation
• Economic advancement
• Personal achievement
• Community connection
