Small Maryland Colleges Respond to Changing Higher Education Marketplace

The Baltimore Sun published "Maryland's small colleges saw the future, and it was bleak. Now, they're selling liberal arts with a twist" on May 10, 2019 with reporting by Liz Bowie.  Bowie focuses attention on changes at a couple of small private Maryland institutions as they maintain relevance in a changing higher education market. 

Responses differ from recent curricular changes at Goucher College in Baltimore to reduced tuition at St. John's College in Annapolis.

Bowie interviewed Lynn Pasquerella from the Association of American Colleges and Universities, Goucher president Jose Bower, Carol Carpenter, St. John's vice president for communications, and several faculty members and students. 

An interesting short video interview with professor Robin Cresiski, director of Goucher's Center for the Advancement of Scholarship and Teaching and Phong Le, professor of mathematics and computer science, is embedded in the article.
