Purdue University’s president, Mitchell E. Daniels Jr., challenged the nation’s public universities to adjust their costs to meet the needs of students and families. Nancy L. Zimpher, chancellor of the State University of New York, called on land-grant universities to cooperate in nationwide efforts to make universities more effective and efficient.
Mr. Daniels and Ms. Zimpher shared the stage on Sunday evening at the annual meeting of the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities. While the scope and specifics of their recommendations differed, both leaders said that public higher education should be playing a larger role in solving the nation’s biggest challenges, primarily by providing accessible, affordable, and effective educational opportunities.
