The for-profit college industry has been taking more than $30 billion annually in taxpayer dollars. But ...

The university was once imagined as an ivory tower — a sanctuary where truth could be pursued, protected from the noise of politics and commerce. Today, that tower is crumbling, revealed as a façade sustained by debt, prestige, and distraction. Students carry lifelong burdens for diplomas that often signify status more than substance. Institutions chase branding and spectacle while neglecting wisdom. And all the while, society waits for Adam Smith’s invisible hand to sort it out. But what if the invisible hand cannot heal education’s fractures? In this groundbreaking work, Dr. Justin...

Selingo, editor at large of the Chronicle of Higher Education, argues that America’s higher education system is broken.

Something needs to change. It's time we switch over to a functional education that will train our kids for success rather than set them up for failure. Dr. David Powers is a Cultural Architect, combining the ...

A Just Future addresses the precarious future of American higher education and diversity and inclusion initiatives along with it. From a global pandemic to a national reckoning with anti-Blackness, the 2020 historical conjuncture brutally revealed the impact of structural inequalities on historically marginalized communities and galvanized college students, diversity officers, and educators on a scale not seen since the 1960s. In so doing, it exposed the unfinished business of the civil rights era and the limits of diversity and inclusion reforms.
