Summary of Major Dynamics Affecting Costs and US Degree
attainment•Need to increase degree attainment•Persistent gaps in access and degree attainment affecting low income and minority groups•Funding needed to increase degree attainment with current cost structures is highly unlikely under current trends•Among public institutions, prices are increasing but spending is not – subsidy shift from state funds to tuition revenues •Privatization of revenues has not benefitted instructional function; competition is further increasing spending •Low income and minority students increasingly clustered in public two-year sector – where spending is low, and fewer than 30% of students get to a baccalaureate degree•Public perceptions/critique about higher education sharpest on issues of cost and cost management

The policy critique is sharpening
• Perception that higher education finance is a “dysfunctional top-line enterprise with no bottom line”
• Critique that the line between profit and non-profit is blurring
• Senate finance committee investigation into non-profit tax status
• Massachusetts state proposal to tax college endowments• Federal proposal re: excessive tuition increases
