Faculty Network on Institutional Change and Transformation in Higher Education

The Faculty Network on Institutional Change and Transformation in Higher Education is comprised of faculty from colleges and universities across the country, who are interested in, or teach courses/seminars on higher education change and transformation. The group meets annually at ASHE to share information regarding their courses, to address pedagogical and research issues, and maintains an active listserve for additional communication.

The creation of this group was supported through the Kellogg Foundation, as part of the Kellogg Forum for Higher Education Transformation (KFHET) project. Faculty members and other professionals working in this area and who are interested in joining should contact Sandy Tarbox (starbox@umich.edu) for information

List Serve address: TransformNetwork@umich.edu
