My focus is on the financial health and viability of colleges in the United States.

My life history is one for which the college education has been profound in more ways than I can reasonably describe. I developed the College Viability Manifesto as a resource to provide a more timely perspective on the college experience balanced with the reality that too many colleges are not financially healthy - to the point of not being viable as an on-going business.

We have seen many colleges close in recent years, and there is every objective reason to believe many more will close in the coming years. I believe my prediction is solid. The challenging part is the time frame. There are so many factors to contemplate regarding a college's viability that to make a prediction of 'when' would not be responsible.
