Why We Are Doing This Panel
Different background experiences leading to Common shared
celebration of liberal ed success concern about challenges to traditional model of
higher ed and defensive responses from contemporary
stakeholders
![Page 3: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The Challenges
Challenges posed by successful responses to previous “higher education crisis” phases
Challenges posed by successful internationalization
Challenges posed by successful incorporation of technical competence

What this panel is
A plea/invitation to a positive discussion of
challenges to the traditional model of higher education brought about by its success
with a spirit of
stewardship for future generations of students and faculty

Higher ed crisis in America! (?)
The Challenge:
• Experts predict that between ten percent and thirty percent of America’s 3100 colleges and universities will close their doors or merge with other institutions…On many campuses the fear of imminent contraction or demise is almost palpable…The specter lurks in colleges and universities of all sizes, public as well as private, although smaller private colleges and the academically weaker state colleges and community colleges are widely expected to be the worst hit. Indeed, hundreds of college and a few universities are already near an end.”
![Page 8: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The problem: That was 1983
George Keller, Academic Strategy
Crisis of late 1970s-early 1980s
Challenges: demographic dip over expansion from
1960s flat stock markets
![Page 9: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Response to the previous “Crisis”
Demographic dip——changing enrollment strategies
over expansion——changing infrastructure 1970s economy——changing development and
endowment management
![Page 10: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
TODAY
Challenges—- Debt—-Student and institutional Price/value proposition—-question of the cost Adjunctification
Particular challenges to liberal arts colleges—vulnerability as compared to comprehensive and state institutions with their own particular challenges
![Page 11: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The greatest threat
My argument: The greatest threat to liberal arts colleges in the
current environment is failure to recognize that they are businesses, whose business model is potentially threatened by changes in current environment
Emphasis on liberal arts colleges being “different” because of
mission tradition of shared governance
This can lead to grave failure to recognize threats and adapt
![Page 12: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
How do we think our way out of this current situation?
![Page 13: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Disruption
Liberal arts colleges are “content bundlers”—-their business model hinges on “bundling” together a number of fixed costs in one package
“Content bundlers” are under incredible stress as consumers try to pry the pieces they want loose and only pay for the parts they want
![Page 14: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Core questions:
• How should colleges and universities not just adjust, but fundamentally rethink their strategies accordingly? How can they find ways to take advantage of this new environment?
• How do these changes place stress on the core business model of the college or university?
• My answer: don’t focus on how liberal arts colleges are different from other for profit and not-for-profit businesses. Instead, ask what can we learn when we focus on what they have in common?
• What’s the institution’s unique competitive advantage? What forces are going to influence the institution’s strategic position?
![Page 15: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Viewing the challenge in a different way
Michael Porter “The Five Forces”— Competition with established rivals Threats from new entrants to the market Bargaining power of suppliers Bargaining power of buyers Threat of substitutes
![Page 16: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Viewing disruption through Porter’s Five Forces

Challenge of “disruption”
Challenge for business models of liberal arts colleges come from:
Threat of substitutes (online, mostly) Bargaining power of buyers—-price sensitivity,
desire to purchase the pieces of the degree credit hours elsewhere Not a bricks versus clicks argument, but
rather threat of pieces of the degree being bought elsewhere.
Disruption and content unbundling in the newspaper and publishing industries
![Page 18: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Key takeaways
• Faculty, administrators, and trustees need to understand how their institutions are not immune from strategic imperatives of competitive forces that challenge key assumptions upon which their business models are formed.
• Responsible stewardship requires adjusting and adapting by challenging fundamental assumptions and values, regardless of who is upset.
• Educating stakeholders to embrace rather than resist• Difference between “failure is not an option” versus
“failure cannot happen”
![Page 19: Embracing the Unexpected Challenges Posed by Liberal Education's Success](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051503/5878ae701a28ab724c8b4ef7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Embracing the potential of technology, collaboration, and internationalization not as threats but as ways to grow the business model of liberal arts colleges
We’ve worked our way through many types of crisis before. Secret now is to not shy away from core threats or treat them with old strategies, but embrace new thinking and approaches.

Global Challenges I
“The assumption is that you can only be a great educational and research power if you do it the American way. I think you could be proved very wrong and it may be too late when you find out.”

Global Challenges II
Yale-NUS cannot simply be a “carbon copy” of Yale’s American campus. Instead, the university “needs a curriculum and a college ethos that respond to the regional context of Asia.”
Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong (2015).

DefinitionsDefinitions“Open education is about sharing, reducing barriers and increasing access in education. It includes free and open access to platforms, tools and resources in education (such as learning materials, course materials, videos of lectures, assessment tools, research, study groups, textbooks, etc.)…”

Why is your institution not pursuing open education at this time?
My institution lacks awareness of open education
My institution does not see open education as being in its strategic interest
Open education is best pursued at the faculty level, not the institution-level
