JOIN US: What Do Colleges Do For Their Communities — and the Country?

 What Do Colleges Do for Their Communities and the Country?
The American public’s growing doubts about the value of a college degree will not abate until policymakers embrace a new definition of higher education excellence—one that measures what colleges do for the country instead of for themselves. Crucially, that includes a college‘s contributions to the economic and civic life of its local community, as legendary journalists James and Deborah Fallows argue in the latest issue of the Washington Monthly.
