Dr. Peterson Savannah Council on World Affairs: US
Dr. Peterson Savannah Council on World Affairs: U.S. Higher Education Goes Global Thursday, April 25, 2013, Coastal Georgia Center, Savannah, GA Title Slide Thank you for inviting me to talk with you this evening. Members of the Savannah Council on World Affairs are to be commended on your global focus. When you began about 30 years ago, you were definitely ahead of your time. I noticed from your Website that each year you provide a stipend to four undergraduate students so that they can have the opportunity to study abroad in the summer. This is tremendous, and potentially life changing for the students. Slide 2: Changing Expectations for Higher Education In October Time ran a cover story titled “Reinventing College,” as part of a special report on higher education. Their exclusive poll revealed that 80% of those surveyed think college is not worth the money. They highlighted $900 billion in college loan debt. There is an increased focus on return on investment. One of the stories referred to an iron triangle of what were termed the three big interrelated challenges facing America’s colleges and universities: access, cost, and quality. Slide 3: Changing Expectations: Employable and prepared to Adapt and Lead We are in a time of changing expectations for higher education. It is no longer acceptable for universities just to enroll good students and graduate them. Today, universities are expected to ensure that graduates are both employable and prepared to adapt and lead in an ever-changing world that many times requires an interdisciplinary approach to developing solutions to grand challenges. -

Chubin & Anthony L. DePass, Co-chairs www.understanding-interventions.org FU N D I N G A N D S U PP O R T Understanding Interventions that Broaden Participation in Science Careers has benefited from generous support from the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and Educational Testing Service, along with productive collaborations with the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine, the American Society for Cell Biology, the American Society of Plant Biologists, American Association for the Advancement of Science, and Long Island University. In September 2013, an NIGMS T36 MARC grant from the National Institutes of Health (Grant No.1 T36 GM 102000) was awarded to Long Island University and it currently provides long- term support for the following: Organization of conferences that will provide: a) venues for dissemination of interventions research and related training; b) opportunities for researchers/practitioners to interact and collaborate; and c) a mechanism for discourse on research-based interventions’ implementation across modalities, stages, and venues. An enhanced and interactive Understanding Interventions website that will: a) facilitate linkages among members of the Understanding Interventions (UI) community; and b) feature an accessible and searchable internet-based annotated database of Interventions articles and other resources. This will expand the dissemination of broadening participation research. An online/email-based publication that distills and disseminates research findings, development opportunities, and general announcements to provide an additional platform for growth of the Understanding Interventions community. -
