Reimagining Public Higher Education for the 21st Century

Tuesday, October 15, 2019 | 10:45AM–11:30AM CT | W190b, Level 1
Session Type: Breakout Session
Delivery Format: Interactive Presentation
The 14-university, 100,000-student Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education is fundamentally transforming its educational and business models in response to an array of challenges that confront public higher education nationally but are acutely concentrated in the commonwealth. Drawing on promising work across US higher education generally, the system has developed and is implementing a five-point transformational playbook designed to ensure the system continues sustainably to offer affordable, quality education and to drive economic development and social mobility in Pennsylvania well into the 21st century. After briefly describing the challenges being confronted by Pennsylvania's only public higher education system, the talk will introduce the playbook, speak to how it integrates lessons learned elsewhere in the industry, and examine some of the initial lessons that are being learned.

Outcomes: Deepen your familiarity with a comprehensive transformational approach to a major public higher education organization and associated implementation and change management strategies and initial results
