[quote=Anonymous]The cliff has already started with the lower birth rates immediately after 9/11 and enrollments are shrinking everywhere. While this is happening, there is also an increase in first-generation college students and the demographics and dynamics of the campus are changing a lot; this is more true for schools that are smaller, private, SLAC, etc... In other words, it will always be difficult to get into an ivy or very very highly regarded school. More schools will go under. Fewer professors will be tenured. More learning will occur online. On the other hand, community colleges will boom/are booming. I am a college professor at one of the schools being affected by this and it is already very impactful and adjustments need to happen/are happening. I think by the time our 5th/6th graders get to college (I have one of these) the changes will have happened and admissions process will have re-calibrated. [/quote]
