Even when it isn’t football or basketball season, colleges can be competitive with each other; they compete for grants, students, and faculty. But is this serving higher education? Instead of competing, the University Innovation Alliance’s 11 member schools have joined together to increase access and success. UIA Executive Director Bridget Burns joins Higher Ed Now to share inspiring stories of schools like Purdue, Arizona State University, and Georgia State. By embracing innovation, these schools have become national models for student success and fiscal responsibility. ACTA has recognized UIA as a “blueprint for reform” in its newest guide for trustees, Bold Leadership, Real Reform 2.0. University leaders will learn how to incubate ideas that will benefit the institution and the students it serves.
