Shimer College President Urges Consideration of Artisanal College Movement

Susan Henking authored an interesting post on The Blog at HuffPost College asking, "Is it time for an Artisanal College Movement?" Henking focuses her comments on the pervasive belief in higher education that enrollments must grow and that institutions are in a never ending campaign to achieve financial viability through larger and larger numbers of students. Henking serves as the president of Shimer College in Chicago

Small higher education institutions will be the primary focus of the Small College Garden. It will also highlight small college towns.

There is a Small College Garden group for those who would like to join discussion and share information through Facebook.

I will typically be posting links to newspaper articles and other information on institutions with fewer than 2,500 students or college towns with populations less than 25,000. I look forward to receiving your comments, suggestions or links to relevant resources!!

I maintain several blogs as a hobby and encourage you to check out the College History Garden for posts on colleges that have closed, merged, or changed names.
