Politicians are fond of castigating colleges and universities and their leaders for their failure to rein in rising costs. While there is a technical explanation of why college costs seem to rise inexorably, that does not explain why university leaders often seem reluctant to expend political capital to control costs. Lawrence Bascow, President Emeritus of Tufts University, says that while there is much hand-wringing about rising costs, it is hard to identify any constituency on a college campus including students, faculty, parents, and even the board that prioritizes cost containment over competing goals.

As a means to accommodate the projected growth of eligible students, the University of California opened its tenth campus in 2005. The long-range goal for the University of California, Merced embraced a vision of a full-service research university that would serve 25,000 students at full capacity. Today’s challenge is how to meet those ambitious expectations in an era of diminished state support for higher education. UC Merced's Thomas Peterson, Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor, and Daniel Feitelberg, Chief Budget Officer, discuss the UC Merced 2020 Project that embraces a unique public-private partnership as a stepping stone toward long-term growth.

Only 60% of undergraduates enrolled in bachelor's programs graduate in six years; fewer that 40% of students in community colleges graduate or transfer in three years. The dropout problem is especially acute for black and Hispanic students, and those from less privileged families. David Kirp addresses what the dimensions of the college dropout scandal are and what can be done to boost graduation rates and reduce the achievement gap.

Traditionally, about 80% of California community college students have been classified “unprepared” upon entry and required to enroll in remedial courses in English, reading, math, and/or English as a second language. These courses are intended to help students be more successful, but the more remedial courses students are required to take, the less likely they are to ever reach their college goals. And because Black and Hispanic students are disproportionately placed into remediation, these policies are a primary driver of racial achievement gaps and a lack of diversity in students transferring to the University of California and California State University systems. Co-Founders of the California Acceleration Project (CAP), Katie Hern and Myra Snell, discuss how the state's 113 community colleges address these problems.

Distance learning has become a significant method of conducting higher education in recent years, facilitated by enhanced information and visual technologies. Such initiatives as massive open online courses (MOOCs) are now commonplace. Mitchell Stevens, who has studied the Stanford experience, and Diana Wu, a thought leader and implementer of several key programs at UC Berkeley, explore the strengths and weaknesses of this approach and consider how the past might inform the present and the future.

Is recruitment into corporate and government leadership jobs concentrated among graduates of elite private universities? Steven Brint, UC Riverside Professor of Sociology and Public Policy, presents findings from a study of the backgrounds of nearly 4000 top corporate executives and government officials drawn from 15 sectors (including government). The findings are indicative of corporate and government leaders being drawn disproportionately from elite private institutions.

Sandra Epstein focuses on the history of the Haas Business School and its relationship to the Berkeley campus and to university business education. The Haas School of Business’ upward trajectory from a “College of Commerce” to its top-ranked position today owes as much to its place as it does to its people and culture. Its affiliation with the Berkeley campus has ensured rigorous academic scholarship and research as well as placed it in the forefront of innovative developments in business, technology, and society.

Democratic presidential candidate Hilary Clinton proposed that all public colleges and universities be made tuition-free for students from families with incomes of up to $85,000 initially, rising to $125,000 by 2021. Clinton also promised a three-month moratorium for all federal student loan borrowers on repaying their debt, during which time borrowers would get help refinancing their loans or moving into income-driven repayment plans. According to her campaign, 80 percent of American families would be able to avoid tuition at public colleges and universities under the plan.

In 2016, UC Berkeley made a number of changes in its undergraduate admissions: It made much greater use of the wait list than in the past, it changed the process of reading applications and the scoring rubric, it eliminated a separate reading process for disadvantaged students, and it asked many applicants for letters of recommendation. Professor Jesse Rothstein compares data on applications and admissions in 2015 and 2016, and assesses the impact of these changes, with a particular focus on the admission of students from groups that are underrepresented at Berkeley.

In order to guarantee that the United States will continue to have world leading public research universities, which are accessible to the entire population, not just students from privileged backgrounds, a new compact for the support of public higher education is required. This compact will involve symbiotic partnerships between the federal and state governments, corporations, foundations and philanthropists, the universities and their students. Robert Birgeneau, Chancellor Emeritus, UC Berkeley and Henry Brady, Dean of the Goldman School of Public Policy at UC Berkeley, discuss specific actions by each of these sectors and specific state and federal government legislation which will enable our public universities both to excel and to continue to retain their public character.

Rankings have a long tradition in the US higher education system that has been described as a caste system in which faculty is recruited from the most elite universities. Prestigious divisions do not only shape the institution itself but also the visions of academics. Stephanie Beyer analyzes how departmental prestige affects the perception of professors and PhD students. She investigates how distinctions among institutions shape different career trajectories and academic perceptions: their views on autonomy, rankings, and competition for funding.

The University of California is unique among American multicampus systems in that it is organized around a principle known as the one-university idea. Its premise is simple: that a large and decentralized system of ten campuses, differing in size, resources, aspiration, and stage of development, can nevertheless be governed as a single university. The one-university idea has long been regarded as a major force behind UC's rise to pre-eminence among American research universities. But does it have a future in the age of public disinvestment in higher education? CSHE Senior Research Associate Patricia A. Pelfrey discusses the one-university principle in the context of UC's history, its contemporary relevance to the governance of the UC system, and the drive for institutional redesign in American universities.

Research shows that these evaluations are biased against female instructors by an amount that is large and statistically significant.

Do you need a doctorate to become a professional? In a growing number of fields, especially in health areas, the answer is yes. For example, new US audiologists and physical therapists who until recently just needed master’s degrees now must have doctorates to enter professional practice, and several other fields appear to be moving in this direction. As a result, doctoral enrollments in these areas have skyrocketed since 2000. This presentation, an expansion of Ami Zusman’s earlier work on professional doctorates, discusses who and what are driving the creation and expansion of these new degrees, how they compare to older doctoral degrees, and their outcomes and implications – for access to professions, quality of client care, future doctoral requirements, and the meaning of a doctorate.
