Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times

Higher education leaders are operating in a time of relentless scrutiny and change. Federal investigations, state mandates, donor and alumni pressure, campus protests, budget shortfalls, and rapid shifts in DEI and AI are converging all at once. The job of leading a college or university has never been more difficult: every decision is scrutinized, trust breaks faster than it is built, and the path forward is rarely clear. The tragic shooting on a Utah campus earlier this month — during a public event on free expression — underlines just how high the stakes have become.
