The college of the future must adapt to a radically changing higher-education landscape. What can colleges do to embrace new partnerships and fresh approaches, put students at the center, and truly deliver upon the value of a college degree?
Join The Chronicle’s journalists as they interview leading thinkers and college leaders about the ideas that will reshape institutions.
You will learn:
Day 1
12:30 - 3:00 pm ET
It’s a common critique that American higher education was not created with today’s students in mind — and that’s a perception that’s likely to become even more widespread as demographics shift and student expectations change. Day 1 will explore how colleges prepare for a future in which they are truly student centered.

Day 2 - Wednesday, August 30
12:30 - 3:00 pm ET
A Social Contract for the Future
Today, as colleges face vocal — and frequently, more virulent — critics, how can higher ed better defend and elevate its role in American society? Day 2 will discuss how that role must evolve in a world where the only certainty feels like uncertainty.
Day 3 - THURSDAY, August 31
12:30 - 3:00 pm ET
Leadership for the Future
The college of the future can not be an Ivory Tower or closed academic community. It’ll be highly interconnected, technology-driven, and one that supports collaboration. Day 3 will focus on how campus leaders – and those that aspire to be one – can adapt their thinking for this new environment.
