Management and Engineering in the Global Setting

Old Versus New Paradigms in Higher
Education
Current Threats to HBCUS Declining Financial Supports
• Federal
• State
• Local
• Student Financial AId
Accountability
• Student Default Rates
• Graduation/ Retention Rates
• NCAA Changing Paradigms
Inability to grow & diversify Accreditation Merger/Closure
Lack of Collective Action
Declining Financial Resources
Declining Public Funding for higher education
Universities must have a diversity of funding sources to remain viable in the new paradigm (State, Federal, Research, etc.)
Universities that lack the ability to diversify their financial portfolio will find themselves at a competitive disadvantage.
Got Accountability???
Accountability standards in Higher Education will be the new norm in higher education. Retention Standards
Graduation Standards
NCAA Standards (Hampton, NCA&T, Texas Southern)
These new standards will be tied to both state and federal funding for higher education.
HBCUs will no longer be exempt from accountability measures and old arguments will not suffice.
HBCUs must be proactive in not only raising these measures but also in shaping standards and policies.

Current Events: Proposed Mergers
Georgia (2008): Republican legislator, Seth Harp, suggested merging two HBCUs in the state (Albany State University & Savannah State University) with predominately white colleges in close proximity (Clark, 2008; Salzer & White, 2008)
Mississippi (2009): On November 16, 2009,
Mississippi’s Governor, Haley Barbour, made a budget recommendation to the Mississippi State Legislature that the state’s three HBCUs- Mississippi Valley State University, Alcorn State University, and Jackson State University- all be merged into a single institution of higher learning.
