Florida v. Department of Education – Accreditation and Quality Control:

Changing Higher Education Podcast 162 with Host Dr. Drumm McNaughton and Guest Michael Goldstein

  The recently filed and highly publicized Florida v. Department of Education lawsuit could change the face of higher education across the US. At stake is the ability of accreditors to set standards in the accreditation versus how much state governments can be involved in accreditation affairs. Essentially the lawsuit is pushing to allow institutions to change their accreditors without being restricted by the Department of Education and that, as the owner of state schools, the state has control over what these institutions can do. In this podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton once again speaks with higher ed legal expert Michael Goldstein of Tyton Partners, who returns to Changing Higher Ed to discuss the background behind the lawsuit, its reasons, and its implications for higher education institutions and accreditation.   Podcast

New Opportunities for Higher Ed Partnerships and Mergers – Changing Higher Ed Podcast 117 with Host Dr. Drumm McNaughton and Guest Mike Goldstein In this episode, Drumm McNaughton and Mike Goldstein, Managing Director at Tyton Partners, discuss emerging opportunities for colleges and universities to engage in creative partnerships and mergers “outside the box” of conventional thinking. The economics of maintaining campuses and serving student bodies are increasingly outstripping the capacity of institutions to generate sufficient revenue. This is especially true for smaller colleges and universities, many of whom may be on the precipice of financial viability. As schools look for alternatives to closing, seeking a savior-type of partnership is a common tendency – but that tendency is evolving. When considering potential partnerships, schools that take a broader and more creative

Evolutionary and Revolutionary Trends in Higher Education

Evolutionary and Revolutionary Trends in Higher Education:

Changing Higher Ed Podcast with host Dr. Drumm McNaughton and guest Mike Goldstein  Evolutionary and Revolutionary Trends in Higher Education   Change in higher education is rapidly accelerating as the world emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic. One way to think about these evolutionary and revolutionary trends in higher education is through an evolutionary theory describing the punctuated equilibrium that was offered by the late evolutionary biologist Stephen Jay Gould. This theory suggests that while a steady rate of change through a logical development is common, there are times when evolution is not slow and steady. A cataclysmic event causes a transformational change that ends one age and begins another. While this change may have happened anyway (but at a slower rate), the cataclysmic event changes the balance in a way

Anticipating Significant Changes to Higher Education Policy with Host Dr. Drumm McNaughton and Guest Mike Goldstein | Changing Higher Ed Podcast 065 Podcast Notes: The results of the U.S. presidential election suggest that there will be significant changes to higher education policy, as well as transformation in the way the nation is governed, even though the political divide in government will continue. This should have significant repercussions for colleges and universities. Mike Goldstein, a distinguished higher education consultant, and attorney, offers his insights on how the presidential election will alter the course of higher education.

Mike Goldstein, one of the top higher education attorneys in the country, offers his insights on how higher education leaders can navigating these challenges. The fall-out from Remote Learning Goldstein sees many implications for higher education that started during the pandemic. One long-term implication involves the necessity to move from some form of face-to-face instruction to remote learning because of the pandemic. He felt it was important to distinguish between online learning and remote learning. Zoom uses the Internet but it is not online learning. What Zoom does is take face-to-face synchronous interaction and moves it

Accreditation, Innovation, and Consensus: Negotiated Rulemaking 2019

Accreditation, Innovation, and Consensus: Neg Reg 2019:

with Host Dr. Drumm McNaughton and Guest Mike Goldstein | Changing Higher Ed Podcast 022

Accreditation, Innovation, and Consensus: Neg Reg 2019 Washington Update  The latest Neg Reg (negotiated rulemaking) process examined the fundamental rules that guide higher education institutions’ interactions with the Department of Education with regard to student aid and related programs.  The Department has used access to student aid to bring a lot of aspects of higher education under federal supervision. The process, which ended in April 2019, focused on accreditation and innovation and will have wide-ranging implications on multiple areas that potentially affect student outcomes. This Neg Reg represents a critical shift, one that bears watching, because of the competing tensions among federal oversight, institutions and accreditors, and the higher ed marketplace, which is shifting toward a more dynamic, more open, learner-centered postsecondary system. This also will result in increased partnerships,
