Join us for a frank conversation about what keeps college presidents up at night in this era of rapid change.
Join us for a frank conversation about what college and university presidents are motivated by and/or what keeps them up at night in this era of rapid change.
We’ll use the Inside Higher Ed/Hanover Research 2025 Survey of College and University Presidents as a jumping-off point for our conversation. Here’s some of what the survey covers:
- General financial and economic confidence, plus mergers and acquisitions
- Politics, policy and the 2024 election’s impact on higher education
- Public perceptions of higher ed and the value of a degree
- Campus speech
- Race on campus
- Artificial intelligence
- Environmental sustainability goals
- Campus health and wellness, including student mental health
- Management, governance and the hardest part about being a president
