Higher Education Accountability
This Book is an extensive Book, "Higher Education Accountability" by Robert Kelchen, published by Johns Hopkins University Press in 2018, examining the multifaceted concept of accountability in higher education. The text explores the theoretical underpinnings of accountability and its historical development in the United States, tracing its evolution from early colonial charters and trustee boards to federal and state policies. It analyzes various forms of accountability, including federal oversight (like the College Scorecard and regulations tied to financial aid eligibility), state-level policies such as performance funding and tuition controls, accreditation processes (both institutional and programmatic), and private-sector influences like college rankings and reputation. The author also addresses institutional internal governance by boards of trustees, faculty, and students, and the challenges and lessons learned in creating effective accountability systems. Ultimately, the book considers the vulnerability of different types of institutions to these varying pressures and the ongoing debate surrounding the closure or restructuring of colleges with poor financial or student outcomes.
