This book was released on 2018-07-13 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While issues of higher education access, opportunity, and impact are hotly debated on the floors of Congress and in state legislatures, it is the state’s higher education executive officer (SHEEO) who is expected to be an innovative policymaker, an astute political actor, an all-seeing fortune-teller, and a rapid problem-solver. These professionals must achieve a balancing act between political agendas and academic freedom while ensuring that the institutions they represent are maximizing their contribution to the larger public good and preparing students to become contributing citizens. In this volume, scholars and practitioners come together to explore the position of the SHEEO. Chapters present historical investigations, original research, and reflections and advice for current and aspiring SHEEOs, their agency staff and boards, state policy leaders, and students of state policymaking and higher education. Each chapter ends with recommendations for the continuing study of, and attention to, the important role of the SHEEO. Book Features: An entire volume solely dedicated to SHEEOs—the individuals responsible for state higher education policy coordination and leadership. Contributions from renowned scholars from higher education, public policy, political science, and public administration, as well as seasoned SHEEOs. Practical advice, high quality and original empirical investigations, and theoretical considerations related to state higher education leadership and governance. A new research agenda with ideas for potential projects outlined at the end of each chapter.

Book Synopsis Volatility in State Spending for Higher Education by : Jennifer A. Delaney
Download or read book Volatility in State Spending for Higher Education written by Jennifer A. Delaney and published by American Educational Research Association. This book was released on 2023-10-30 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The severity of cuts and the unpredictability in state funding for higher education have garnered headlines across the nation since the turn of the present century. In this context, the authors in this new groundbreaking volume argue that too little attention is paid to the consequences of volatility in funding, as most discussions focus on levels of funding. Their research addresses an important blind spot in the academic literature since predictability matters—to institutions, students, families, and states. In addition, the risks of operating in an uncertain financial environment have led to behaviors that are not always in the best interests of states, institutions, faculty, students, or the public good.
Book Synopsis Public Policy for Higher Education in the United States by : Paul E. Lingenfelter
Download or read book Public Policy for Higher Education in the United States written by Paul E. Lingenfelter and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The State Higher Education Executive Officers (SHEEO) is the national association of the chief executives of statewide governing, policy, and coordinating boards of postsecondary education. Founded in 1954, SHEEO serves its members as an advocate for state policy leadership, as a liaison between states and the federal government, as a vehicle for learning from and collaborating with peers, and as a source of information and analysis on educational and public policy issues. SHEEO seeks to advance public policies and educational practices to achieve more widespread access and successful participation in higher education, more new discoveries through research, and more applications of knowledge that improve the quality of human lives. This document, written to commemorate the 60th Anniversary, and presented at the 61st Annual meeting of SHEEO provides an abbreviated history of the organization. It begins with a discussion of the influence of John Dale Russell who convened the first meeting of the association in 1954 in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and provides details of his career. The history continues from the first years of the association, 1954-1958, to the expansion of the profession in 1959-1968. The years between 1969-1984 are described as the maturing of the association. 1984-2000 were the years in which the scope and capabilities of the association expanded. In the more recent past, the years between 2000-2014 brought with them dramatic changes in the economic and political environment that played an important role in shaping the association's development and services. State higher education leaders face the next 20 years with a goal, but no road map, and there is an "argument in the car about which direction to take." The challenges of state policy leadership in higher education are different and perhaps more difficult than those faced in the past. More than ever before, SHEEO sees an urgency to sustain and nurture the community of public policy leaders in higher education. Appended are: (1) Professional History of John Dale Russell;(2) 1954 Meeting Agenda; (3) Notable SHEEO Alumni, Staff and Policy Leaders; (4) SHEEO Chairs and Presidents Since 1975; (5) History of Leadership in SHEEP Agencies; and (6) Staff Who Have Served SHEEO.

Any administrator who wants to gain a deeper understanding of these issues than can be gleaned from a presidential candidates' debate might do well to spend some time with these essays." -- University Business
Book Synopsis Financing American Higher Education in the Era of Globalization by : William Zumeta

This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ambitious book grows out of the realization that a convergence of economic, demographic, and political forces in the early twenty-first century requires a fundamental reexamination of the financing of American higher education. The authors identify and address basic issues and trends that cut across the sectors of higher education, focusing on such questions as how much higher education the country needs for individual opportunity and for economic viability in the future; how responsibility for paying for it is currently allocated; and how financing higher education should be addressed in the future.

Book Synopsis The Privatization of Everything by : Donald Cohen
Download or read book The Privatization of Everything written by Donald Cohen and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2021-11-23 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book the American Prospect calls “an essential resource for future reformers on how not to govern,” by America’s leading defender of the public interest and a bestselling historian “An essential read for those who want to fight the assault on public goods and the commons.” —Naomi Klein A sweeping exposé of the ways in which private interests strip public goods of their power and diminish democracy, the hardcover edition of The Privatization of Everything elicited a wide spectrum of praise: Kirkus Reviews hailed it as “a strong, economics-based argument for restoring the boundaries between public goods and private gains,” Literary Hub featured the book on a Best Nonfiction list, calling it “a far-reaching, comprehensible, and necessary book,” and Publishers Weekly dubbed it a “persuasive takedown of the idea that the private sector knows best.” From Diane Ravitch (“an important new book about the dangers of privatization”) to Heather McGhee (“a well-researched call to action”), the rave reviews mirror the expansive nature of the book itself, covering the impact of privatization on every aspect of our lives, from water and trash collection to the justice system and the military. Cohen and Mikaelian also demonstrate how citizens can—and are—wresting back what is ours: A Montana city took back its water infrastructure after finding that they could do it better and cheaper. Colorado towns fought back well-funded campaigns to preserve telecom monopolies and hamstring public broadband. A motivated lawyer fought all the way to the Supreme Court after the state of Georgia erected privatized paywalls around its legal code. “Enlightening and sobering” (Rosanne Cash), The Privatization of Everything connects the dots across a wide range of issues and offers what Cash calls “a progressive voice with a firm eye on justice [that] can carefully parse out complex issues for those of us who take pride in citizenship.”

Book Synopsis Won’t Lose This Dream by : Andrew Gumbel
Download or read book Won’t Lose This Dream written by Andrew Gumbel and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “heartfelt” (Shelf Awareness) story of how Georgia State University tore up the rulebook for educating lower-income students Published to wide acclaim, Won’t Lose This Dream is the “illuminating” (Times Literary Supplement) story of a public university that has blazed an extraordinary trail for lower-income and first-generation students in downtown Atlanta, the birthplace of the civil rights movement. “A powerful story of institutional transformation” (bestselling author Beverly Daniel Tatum), Won’t Lose This Dream shows how Georgia State University has upended the conventional wisdom about low-income students by harnessing the power of big data to identify and remove obstacles that previously stopped them from graduating—an earthshaking achievement that is reverberating across every college campus today. “Drawing on extensive on-the-ground reporting” (Kirkus Reviews), Andrew Gumbel delivers a thrilling, blow-by-blow account of visionary leaders who overcame fierce resistance, and the remarkable students whose resilience and determination inspired the work at every stage. Their success shows how the promise of social advancement through talent and hard work, the essence of the American dream, can be rekindled even in an age of deep inequalities and divisive politics. “A superb work for anyone interested in higher education” (Library Journal), Won’t Lose This Dream “lays out a persuasive vision for reform” (Publishers Weekly) and a concrete vision of higher ed that works for all Americans.
