Rebooting for the New Talent Economy
Andrew S Rosen
This book delves into the current crisis of American higher education, where low-income students struggle to find funding while public universities spend exorbitant amounts on luxurious accommodations and research. With clear and entertaining writing, the author outlines how the system has strayed from its goals of access, quality, affordability, and accountability, and offers a prescription for restoring American educational excellence. The book proposes a new playbook for dealing with the coming changes, enabling higher education to regain its global primacy and be a catalyst for economic growth in the 21st century.
