The senior editors cover cuts to funding for minority-serving institutions and new restrictions on international students. They also analyze where negotiated rule making on student borrowing will go and ponder what the “Compact for Academic Excellence” signals about the administration’s higher ed strategy.

Looking to the coming months, Knott shares what’s coming up on the federal policy agenda that reporters in IHE’s newsroom will be following.
