- Description:
- American universities are facing increasing federal regulation and red tape, leading to new pressures for regulatory reform within the higher education community. This has resulted in economic impacts on institutions, as they must comply with various federal programs and reporting requirements. There are concerns about threats to academic freedom, as well as the financial burden of federal regulations on colleges and universities. The burden falls on Congress to ensure that future legislation minimizes economic impact on higher education, and greater consultation with the higher education community is needed before enacting new regulations. Ultimately, higher education must establish self-regulation to ensure that federal funds are being efficiently spent and national goals are being achieved.
