Federal Commission on Higher Ed

Statement from U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings on the Commission on the Future of Higher Education (8/10/06)

America has the finest system of higher education in the world, and we are determined to keep it that way. Today, after a series of public meetings, the Commission on the Future of Higher Education has voted to approve its final report. I formed the Commission to spark a national debate and examine the critical issues of access, affordability, accountability, quality and innovation in order to determine whether our colleges and universities are adequately preparing students for the competitive 21st century workforce. I thank the Commission members, who hail from diverse backgrounds, for their single-minded dedication to this mission, and I look forward to receiving their final report in September. I also look forward to working with the higher education community as we move forward. I will review the findings, determine appropriate actions and continue this national dialogue on how to become more responsive to the needs of students, parents, educators and the business community.
