AGB Board of Directors’ Statement on Board Responsibility for the Oversight of College Completion

By AGB February 1, 2016 September 30th, 2024 AGB Board Statements

One of the most important challenges for American higher education today is increasing the number of students who enroll in and complete their postsecondary education with a high-quality degree or credential. Report after report demonstrates the public benefits of having a well-educated population, from improved economic stability to enhanced research and development to stronger national security. Individual benefits include greater opportunity and financial security, even better health. At the institutional and system levels, and with backing from governors, legislatures, and the president, work is underway to address the need for more college graduates and adults with credentials, but much remains to be done if we are to reach critical goals for completion.
