Declining enrollments, drastically reduced state and federal government funding, and excessive growth of support and administration costs have left many universities in a cash-strapped financial conundrum. In addition, student loan debt exceeds U.S. credit card debt and serious questions are being raised about the ROI (cost to value) of a college degree. \u003cbr\u003e  To address these critical issues, over 30 diverse and prestigious thought leaders contribute innovative ideas to help re-imagine, re-engineer, and re-invent the business of higher education - with a focus on the pragmatic, the achievable. Some of their suggestions are in the guise of blasphemy; others are cloaked in common sense. All will provoke. \u003cbr\u003e Cross-indexed against five large foci important within higher education-Leadership; Academic and Faculty Affairs; Student Services and Affairs; Financial and Administrative; and, Data-views touch on solutions that are tried, innovative, disruptive, or simple and sane. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Steven Kayser,Peter Fenner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1511926120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781511926126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/25\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.82d","brand":"Steven Kayser","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445258170623,"sku":"9781511926126","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_35698582-b77b-4589-ae66-55c05cbedfea.jpg?v=1777217536","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/margins-missions-not-moonshots-steven-kayser-9781511926126","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
