EdSurge: Consolidation, Collaboration or Closure? How Colleges Stay Alive in 2018

EdSurge recently published a column interviewing several higher education experts on their projections for college and university consolidations, collaborations and closures for 2018. While all experts project that significantly more partnerships, alliances and collaboration are to come, projections vary on the amount of consolidations and closures. While three experts do not project a significant increase in mergers and consolidations in 2018 as compared to 2017, one projected double the amount this year.
