Higher Ed thought leaders forecast 2015
Presidents and other thought leaders look ahead on cost, technology and learning.
By: University Business Staff – University Business, January 2015
Donald Farish
President, Roger Williams University, Rhode Island
Topic: Tuition and financial aid
Trend: Well over half of the nonprofit private colleges failed to meet either their enrollment or revenue targets this fall. Despite this, I predict that the overwhelming majority of these schools will continue to increase both tuition and discount rates next year, and even more of them will fall short of their enrollment and revenue targets.
Daniel Porterfield
President, Franklin & Marshall College (Pa.)
Topic: Affordability and value
Trend: If you’re a college or university business officer, you’re going to have to continue dealing with the issues of affordability and value. Every institution—public and private alike—needs a logic for its price, and should be doubling down to create educational quality and services that add value to students’ lives and to society as a whole.
K&W helps design new Susquehanna Art Museum
SAM is Central Pennsylvania’s only dedicated art museum, with exhibits reflecting the community’s diverse cultural heritage and the work of over 110 regional artists. A model for revitalization and historic preservation, K&W provided site design and land development services for the new $7 million museum located in the historic Keystone Building, at Third and Calder streets in Harrisburg’s Midtown neighborhood.
Specifically K&W was responsible for plan approval (land development, zoning, erosion and sediment control) and site design services for the tight, urban location. Design elements included pedestrian and vehicular access, landscape design, utility coordination, and parking facilities. K&W also prepared the property boundary and topographic survey, coordinated environmental investigation and geotechnical work, and provided construction phase services.
