Top 10 Higher Education State Policy Issues for 2014

With legislative sessions underway in most states, higher education issues will be among the priorities on lawmakers’ policy agendas. Strong focus will be given to harnessing higher education to meet state economic goals, crafting negotiated agreements that link state funding to tuition freezes or modest tuition increases, and strategically allocating state operating support to align with state objectives.

These are among the top 10 higher education state policy issues most likely to affect public higher education across the 50 states in 2014. Compiled by the AASCU State Relations and Policy staff, this 8^th annual Top 10 issues briefing is informed by an environmental scan of the economic, political and policy landscape surrounding public higher education, as well as a review of recent state policy activities and trends.
