Leaders at three of North America’s top universities have highlighted the need for creative solutions and adaptability across the higher education system in the light of persistent global economic uncertainty, spiralling student loan debt and crippling institutional operating costs. But they also expressed considerable optimism. The senior administrators spoke with University World News, voicing their thoughts about trends and developments for higher education in 2014.
