What’s Next for Higher Ed in 2023 Article  is based on the Context of the US Education System and highlights 3 things the  Author is watching  in the next 12 Months. 1️⃣ The Debate Shifts on Value of the BA For more than 50 years,  higher ed’s marketing message was crystal clear: a college degree pays off.
