As we begin our review of the American system of higher education, let’s consider a few general questions: • Looking back at your college career, how have colleges and universities changed from the first time you enrolled in a college class to today?

• How can understanding history of higher education help us become better decision makers?

• What changes do you think are coming in the future for higher education?

Does history really matter?
