One thought on “Indiana higher ed board updates degree review process after hundreds of programs cut, merged

  1. “CHE officials believe one barrier is the overwhelming number of degree choices. Since the early 2000s, Indiana’s public institutions have added more than 1,000 bachelor’s degree programs—a 40% increase, even as enrollment has declined.

    “’We wonder why students are challenged in making these choices,” Lowery continued. “This degree program review process is an excellent complement … to helping students have clear choices and understanding what those are.’”

    So, too much choice is bad? Shall we adopt the Soviet way of consumerism: you get the choice of one shoe and it comes in just one size!
