On much-overdue accreditation restructuring
In the Chronicle of Higher Education, Milton Greenberg, professor emeritus at American University, writes compellingly on the failure of the regional accreditation system. He correctly posits that geography is no longer a defining characteristic of higher education, and that other criteria should be paramount in determining which accreditor a university should use. This is yet another way in which the current system of accreditation is simply unsustainable, and ACTA urges trustees to take note and seek change.
