Public Policy Challenges Facing Higher Education in the American
West is the first regional public policy study of American higher
education. Presidents of the Western State Commission for Higher
Education and the National Center for Higher Education Management
Systems, alongside nationally recognized policy analysts and
current western campus presidents, provosts, and administrators,
tackle seven key public policy issues facing postsecondary
education in the American West: student access, federal research
funding, state governance, state financing, state appropriations
and their relationship to institutional tuition, distance education
and technology, and the role of community colleges. These analysts,
researchers, and administrators offer a clear and complete analysis
of the facts of each policy situation, the public policy options,
and their connections to state and university relationships.
Fifteen western states, including Alaska, California, and Hawaii,
comprise the expansive region under discussion. With its companion
volume, Higher Education in the American West: Regional History and
State Contexts, this book is essential reading for higher education
policymakers, scholars, and anyone who wants to know what the
relationship between states and universities in the West has been
and where it is going.
