Roundtable Participants

The essay, "Shaping the Future," is based on a special Roundtable on the Public and Private Finance of Higher Education, jointly convened by the California Higher Education Policy Center and the Pew Higher Education Roundtable, with support from the Ford Foundation and the James Irvine Foundation. The Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE) and the Southern Regional Educational Board (SREB) also served as co-sponsors.

In preparation for the roundtable discussion, case studies were prepared that examined the political and financial circumstances affecting higher education in five states: California, Florida, Michigan, Minnesota, and New York. Copies of these case studies, and of the other policy papers mentioned in this essay, may be obtained from the California Higher Education Policy Center, 160 West Santa Clara Street, Suite 704, San Jose, CA 95113.
