  • E Ects of Georgia's University System Consolidations
    Better Outcomes Without Increased Costs? Eects of Georgia's University System Consolidations Lauren Russell∗ November 28, 2018 Abstract Declining state appropriations for higher education have prompted consolidations within nu- merous public university systems. Using administrative data from the University System of Georgia, I investigate the eects of recent consolidations on educational quality and eciency. Comparing cohorts matriculating after consolidations to similar cohorts at non-consolidated insti- tutions reveals that consolidation increases retention rates and the fraction of students graduating on-time with four-year degrees. Spending data and conversations with USG administrators sug- gest that increased spending on academic support (advising), made possible by economies of scale in student services, are likely responsible for the gains. JEL Codes: H4, I23, L3. Keywords: higher education consolidation, college mergers, higher education nance. ∗The Nelson A.

    STRANGER UNDER SIEGE: A HIGHER EDUCATION LEADERSHIP CASE STUDY OF KENNESAW STATE UNIVERSITY’S SAM OLENS Gordon W. Maples Vanderbilt University Abstract This case study and analysis explores the brief, 17-month tenure of Sam Olens as president of Kennesaw State University, including his controversial appointment, leadership mis-steps, and eventual resignation. The political and social contexts of his tenure, which coincided with political turmoil in the wake of the 2016 election and a subsequent resurgence in progressive activism throughout the country, are considered as contributing factors to his downfall. Likewise, his status as an outsider to higher education at the time of his appointment, his visibility as an outspoken conservative, and his employment being the perceived benefit of political corruption are all noted as contributing elements to his inability to earn the confidence of the faculty and student body of Kennesaw State University. Additional factors include his divisive, misguided, and ill-conceived actions while in the executive position at the university. The role of institutional context explored includes the recent histories of Kennesaw State University, the University System of Georgia, and the state of shared governance in STRANGER UNDER SEIGE !70 American higher education as a whole. These contexts set the stage for Olens’s tumultuous and temporary reign at Kennesaw State. A set of recommended courses of action are presented as counterfactual alternatives to the events as they actually occurred, based on higher education leadership literature. Keywords: Higher education leadership, college president, higher education governance 2016: The Controversial Appointment of Sam Olens In June of 2016, Kennesaw State University’s president, Daniel Papp, retired amidst a sequence of financial scandals, which cost the jobs of many of his fellow high- level administrators (Davis, 2016).

  • Research Notes University System of Georgia Board of Regents — Office of Research and Policy Analysis
    Research Notes University System of Georgia Board of Regents — Office of Research and Policy Analysis University System of Georgia Cost of Attendance, AY2007 to AY2008 Background on Cost of Attendance Although the public view of the costs of attending college is usually focused on tuition and fees, these costs are generally only about one-fifth to one-fourth of total costs. Data collected on the cost of attending college are thus critical for a variety of reasons, especially for a student’s college financial planning. In addition, some financial aid grantors determine the amount of a loan or grant based on the total cost of attendance (including books, housing, transportation, etc.). This research note examines the total cost of attendance for one year at University System of Georgia institutions. Cost data were collected through the National Center for Education Statistics, Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) for Academic Year (AY) 2007-08, and IPEDS data on the cost of attendance (COA) were reported by each institution. Costs include tuition and fees, room and board, books and supplies, and required personal expenses, such as insurance, medical care, or minimal transportation costs.1 The tuition reported to IPEDS is the average tuition charged at the institution for one year. The formula used to calculate cost of attendance for USG students includes costs for students on the guaranteed tuition plan and those without guaranteed tuition. The tuition reported to IPEDS is the average of tuition for students with the Fixed-for-Four in Fall 2006, Fixed-for-Four for Fall 2007, and the 2007 rate for juniors and seniors who were not on the guaranteed rate.
