Clay Shirky is the author of two books on social media: Cognitive Surplus: Creativity and Generosity in a Connected Age, and Here Comes Everybody: The Power of Organizing Without Organizations. From his recent blog: “The biggest threat those of us working in colleges and universities face isn’t video lectures or online tests. It’s the fact that we live in institutions perfectly adapted to an environment that no longer exists.” |

âJeff Selingo was one of the top editors to The Chronicle of Higher Education, where he still contributes. He’s the author of College (Un)Bound: The Future of Higher Education and What It Means for Students. |
SCUP supports integrated planning, which links vision, priorities, people, and resources across the campus in support of the institutional mission and academic plan. It shapes and guides the entire organization as it evolves over time because all areas on campus are linked to each other. What happens in one area almost always impacts another.
Our conference attendees come from the president’s office, academic affairs, budget and financial, student affairs, capital and facilities planning—and everywhere in between. Leaders with visions for transforming higher education exist in every department. How are you transforming higher education?
