This Week In College Viability (TWICV) for June 17, 2024
Manage episode 424155497 series 3526900
We are entering the hot weather season -- and the really hot seat season for colleges. There is increasing anecdotal evidence that the FAFSA debacle will cause much trauma this Fall and Spring. I am starting to see a small number of colleges take what I am going to call ‘proactive layoffs and cutbacks’.
This week:
+ Philadelphia’s University of the Arts is taking some real heat for its really short-notice closure announcement
+ A reporter it Topeka KS demonstrates, again, how USNWR data can be grossly misrepresenting.
+ Two stories about vocational and entrepreneurial trends replacing traditional college
+ June 21st panel podcast on FAFSA and federal bailout
