There have been perpetual questions from the General Assembly and the Administration, as well as the public, about why higher education costs what it does. In order for informed decisions to be made regarding funding and tuition policies, we must first be able to articulate the demands on institutions – and the demands they might be placing on themselves that drive costs up - and answer these questions with clear and accurate data. This team will be charged with determining what data needs to be used to analyze institution costs – and how to tell the story that the data reveals. The analysis will likely be grouped by institution type (such as research, 4-year, and access), but the expert team will work through those details and provide the EAG and CCHE with a thoughtful analysis of what is driving costs. The results of this expert team’s work will be particularly important as tuition policy recommendations, as required by 1319, are developed.
