Can We Reverse Falling College Enrollment‪?‬ Higher Ed Spotlight

    • Education

Falling enrollment may be the most existential challenge faced by American colleges and universities today. There are nearly 10% fewer undergraduates than there were in 2010, and higher ed leaders are striving to reverse that trend. When Daniel Greenstein took over as chancellor of Pennsylvania’s State System of Higher Education he inherited one of the most underfunded systems in the country – and one of the most expensive for learners. He sits down with Ben to talk about why enrollment has fallen, and what he’s doing to try and bring it back up.
