According to Rich, the global environment of higher education is in the midst of a dramatic transformation that has altered the requirements for institutional success and promoted a re-conception of the public role of U.S. universities.

He will discuss how the restructuring of the underlying political economy of higher education is redefining the public responsibilities of universities, with a greater focus on stimulating success in the global competition for economic development.

A reception will follow the presentation in the lobby of the Roselle Center for the Arts. Please respond with acceptances only to the School of Urban Affairs and Public Policy at [suapp@udel.edu] or (302) 831-1687.
