The Role of Faculty in Economic Sustainability

Dr. Audrey Bilger serves as professor of literature at Claremont McKenna College. This summer, she authored “It’s Not Us versus Them,” published in Business Officer magazine, in which she outlines the gap between faculty and administration in her attempt to answer a simple central question: How do faculty members think about the financial situation of our institutions?

It turns out, as Dr. Bilger discovered, faculty don’t think much about institutional finance. This week on NACUBO In Brief, she makes the case for faculty to embrace institutional reality, to learn more about their place as educators beyond their departments, and get involved in discussions that will move their institutions forward sustainably.

This is a wide-ranging conversation about the economic models that serve higher education, about taking back the dialog in the media, and about our shared role as advocates of higher education as a public good. Listen in!
