STUDENT LEADERSHIP CONFERENCEFEBRUARY 5, 2010

What is Reaching Higher?• Indiana Commission for Higher Education
Strategic Plan, outlining specific initiatives and recommendations for action in six key areas– College Completion– Affordability– Preparation– Community College– Major Research Universities– Accountability
“To thrive as a state and as individuals, all Hoosiers will need to achieve a depth and breadth of education never seen in the state’s history.”
3
Why Should Indiana Care?• As a nation, the US is 10th among industrialized nations in college completion rates, down from
first place.
• Indiana currently ranks 32nd in the nation in the average personal income of its residents—this is a 35-year low against the national average.
• Over the past year, employment declined by at least 5% in all regions of the state.
• Indiana currently ranks 42nd in the nation in the proportion of adults with a postsecondary credential.
• Indiana’s economy depends highly on manufacturing, an industry that is changing rapidly. While Indiana remains the top manufacturing state in the nation, the state has lost hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs in the last decade—since 2000, manufacturing jobs have declined 35%.
• Indiana tax revenues declined by approximately 4.8% in FY2009. From July to December 2009, revenue collections were down $723M, or 11.4%, from the same six month period for the previous year.
• Indiana continues to experience skill shortages in critical occupations.
• Increasing national and international competition requires high levels of knowledge and creative thinking, educated risk-taking and entrepreneurial spirit. 75% of the highest-growth, highest-pay jobs over the next decade will require some form of postsecondary credential.
• Quality of life of the state’s communities are tied directly to the strength of education.
4
Why Should YOU Care?College Completion
• From 1986 to 2006, Indiana’s high school-to-college-going rate nearly doubled, from 33% to over 63%. But our completion rates have not kept pace. Only 1/3 of our students graduate on time, and nearly 50% don’t graduate at all, and only about 10% of community college students graduate within three years.
• College graduates can expect to earn over $1M over and above what a high school graduate will earn in a lifetime.
• The career options you will have as a college graduate will be far more stable and lucrative than those available to Hoosiers without college credentials.
Affordability• More than half of Indiana’s students exit college with student loan debt. Students who don’t graduate
are 10 times more likely to default on their loans. • Indiana ranks 15th in the nation in student indebtedness at graduation, with average debt of $23,264—
62% of the state’s graduates have debt. • College costs are outpacing inflation, and are especially outpacing growth in personal income and
wages.
Preparation• About ¼ of your classmates needed remediation when they entered college, ranging up to 65% of the
entering class at the community college.
Accountability• As taxpayers, you support Indiana’s public system of higher education to the tune of $1.2B each year.
Between your tuition and fees and the state’s investment, it costs nearly $80,000 a year to produce a degree.
• Increasing competition from graduates from other countries—colleges and universities need to ensure that academic quality remains high despite increasing financial pressures.

College Completion Rates: All Students and Low-Income Students
Reaching Higher with College Completion
Indiana ranks below the national average and most Midwestern states in its number of first-year students who return for a second year.
10
Reaching Higher Strategies• New funding formula that incents improved
graduation rates and completions.• Increasing admissions requirements at
flagship institutions and Regional Campuses.• Elimination of remediation at all 4-year
institutions.• Improving the “culture of completion” at all
institutions

Attaining a college degree has a profound impact on socioeconomic mobility in the United States. Indiana institutions must work to control student costs, and the state must continue to increase its commitment to need-based financial aid.

Affordability Strategies• Increasing public knowledge of available financial
aid.• Expand the 21st Century Scholar program – now
available to students throughout middle school. • Encouraging institutions to provide wrap-around
support for Scholars and other low-income students.• Ensuring predictability and transparency in setting
tuition and fee rates– Rates must be set for two years– CHE’s “tuition targets”

Indiana’s 4-year regional campuses, IUPUI, University of Southern Indiana and Indiana State University will reduce the level of remediation provided to not more than 10% of students by 2015.
Progress Performance
Students who need developmental coursework are much less likely to graduate than students who are prepared for college-level work. In addition, students spend time and money on remedial coursework, but earn no credit toward a degree.

College Preparation Strategies• Increasing admissions standards for Indiana’s
flagship institutions—IU-B, Purdue-WL, and Ball State.
• Defining a common definition of college-readiness, and then communicating it into high schools.
• Providing opportunities for early assessment.• Encourage dual credit and AP coursework.

Performance
Indiana has a vested interest in the number of Associate’s degrees and certificates produced at the Community Colleges, because these individuals are essential to the growth of Indiana’s economy. Over 9,400 annual job openings requiring an Associate’s Degree or Certification are projected in Indiana through 2016.

Community College Strategies
• Development of the “Accelerated Associate Degree Program” at Ivy Tech
• Strengthening Ivy Tech’s College for Working Adults• Restructuring remediation• Ensuring affordability—keeping tuition low and
supporting additional funding for the Part-Time grant• Building an improved transfer system that ensures
courses taken at Ivy Tech count toward 4-year college degree requirements.
Strengthening Indiana’s Major Research Universities
Reaching Higher with
MAJOR RESEARCH UNIVERSITIES

Major Research University Strategies
• Expand existing state funding for research• Improve the undergraduate preparedness and
qualifications of students entering the MRUs• Collaboration between IU and Purdue• More corporate/private-sector participation in
university research• Development of MRU metrics – tracks R&D,
Technology Transfer, and institutional reputation
Based on work at Indiana’s Major Research Universities, Indiana will rank in the top half of all Midwestern states in Research and Development Expenditures by 2015.
