Reportto the Community GEORGIA INDEPENDENT COLLEGE ASSOCIATION GICA GEORGIA INDEPENDENT COLLEGE ASSOCIATION “Attending a Private College Has Been Very Valuable to Me REPORTTo The Community GEORGIA INDEPENDENT COLLEGE ASSOCIATION GICA GEORGIA INDEPENDENT COLLEGE ASSOCIATION “Attending a private college has been very valuable to me. I love having smaller class sizes and being able to get to know everyone around school…At a private college you’re not just a name or a face in class, your professors actually want to be able to get to know who you are and they want to help you succeed in their class and for your future.” Katelyn Wienbarg Sophomore Reinhardt University STAFF Dr. Susanna L.

The Georgia Independent College Association (GICA) and our 26 member institutions are privileged to provide high-quality, affordable education to more than 76,000 diverse students. The private, not-for-profit higher education sector not only provides students with an educational choice, it also saves the State of Georgia tens of thousands of dollars for each student we educate. GICA and our member institutions are grateful to our legislators, donors and corporate partners for their support of the not-for-profit sector. The continued support of both federal and state student aid programs is vitally important to students wanting to choose an institution that best fits their educational, social and spiritual needs. We are indebted to the individuals, foundations and corporations supporting both GICA and the students our members serve. In 2013, GICA continued its efforts to form alliances and collaboratives aimed at creating further efficiencies and sharing resources and expertise. Sixteen of our member institutions are partnering with the state to better educate students regarding the transfer process through the Ga-TRACS program. GICA members are also participating in GA-AWARDS, the new state longitudinal data system designed to assist education policy researchers to better evaluate and create educational policies across Georgia. Seven of our members are participating with GICA in a Robert Woodruff Foundation research grant to explore issues related to low-income student degree completion. Additionally, all of our members are collaborating on their purchases to save money and participating in professional development opportunities through GICA. Within these pages, you will read more about the private, not-for-profit sector and the various ways GICA supports our member institutions. None of this would be possible without the continued support of our donors. Your support of our initiatives and to our scholarship programs is transformative.

This paper examines the tradeoff between public health risks and financial standing that school administrators faced when deciding reopening plans. Because in-person instruction at colleges and universities had large effects on COVID-19 case rates, it is critical to understand what caused these decisions. We used binary and multinomial probit models to evaluate an original data set of publicly available data as Citation: Tobin, Jonah, Oliver Hall, well as data from the College Crisis Initiative.

  • February 26, 2021 President, Search Committee New College of Florida
    February 26, 2021 President, Search Committee New College of Florida Via Electronic Mail Dear Members of the Search Committee: As I read your engaging presidential prospectus, I was drawn to New College of Florida’s distinctive liberal arts model. The opportunity to expand on the college’s influence and build on this unique model that is “open-minded, minimally prescriptive, customized, and evolutionary” invigorates me. Each time I read it I feel myself gaining energy and purpose. I enthusiastically submit my “curriculum vitae,” ​ highlighting a cutting edge integration of applied liberal arts, the intersection of career development and ​ education, an inclusive and welcoming community that builds trust, enhanced organizational effectiveness, and successful financial leadership with partnerships and fundraising. My qualifications and experiences prepare me particularly well to help build an increasingly visible role for New College of Florida that draws interest and enrollment from new pools of students throughout the state, region, nation and world. ​ When I first enrolled at Trinity College in Hartford, CT, as an undergraduate, I encountered faculty who were ready and eager to mentor and guide me. One example is Dori Katz, my faculty advisor, who did not tell me that majoring in French would be impossible because I am deaf. She said, "I will help you." But I soon learned that she didn't know how. So I began to teach her about my world, as she taught me about hers. Without the discussion we sustained and the careful attention she gave me over four years, I may ​ never have become the educated, ethical and engaged citizen that I am today.

  • The Best Kind of College
    Introduction ᇺᇻᇺ Susan McWilliams and John E. Seery Higher education is, these days, in the news. Much of that news is grim. The price of tuition is increasing at a phenomenal rate. Student loan debt is at an all-time high. Many universities are overfilled, and students cannot enroll in the courses they need to graduate. The fast pace of technological change makes many degrees seem almost immediately obsolete. Graduates have trouble finding jobs. In response, all sorts of debates have been raging about the future of higher education in America, in particular the future of the liberal arts in the country’s colleges and universities. Virtually everyone in the chatter- ing classes has had his or her say on the matter; those who have proposed sweeping reforms to higher education include government officials, CEOs, politicians, think-tank researchers, journalists, media pundits, and univer- sity administrators, as well as parents and students and some prominent professors. But drowned out in all this noisy punditry are the people we may need to hear most: those persons who actually teach the liberal arts exclusively to undergraduates—namely, the faculty who teach in the nation’s small liberal arts colleges. As the voices of those who teach in such colleges are left out of public debate, so, too, are America’s small liberal arts colleges them- selves discounted, or essentially forgotten, in the clamor over the nation’s educational future. We think it is hard to overstate the massive error of this neglect. Small liberal arts colleges should be at the heart of any discussion about Ameri- can higher education rather than relegated to the sidelines or overlooked 1 © 2015 State University of New York Press, Albany 2 Susan McWilliams and John E.
