Higher education

Higher education

Higher education is tertiary education leading to the award of an academic degree. Higher education, also called post-secondary education, third-level or tertiary education, is an optional final stage of formal learning that occurs after completion of secondary education. It represents levels 5, 6, 7, and 8 of the 2011 version of the International Standard Classification of Education structure. Tertiary education at a non-degree level is sometimes referred to as further education or continuing education as distinct from higher education.

Times Higher Education

Times Higher Education

Times Higher Education (THE), formerly The Times Higher Education Supplement, is a British magazine reporting specifically on news and issues related to higher education.

Washington, D.C.

Washington, D.C.

Washington, D.C., formally the District of Columbia and commonly known as Washington or D.C., is the capital city and federal district of the United States. The city is located on the east bank of the Potomac River, which forms its southwestern border with Virginia, and borders Maryland to its north and east. The city was named for George Washington, a Founding Father, commanding general of the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War, and the first president of the United States, and the district is named for Columbia, the female personification of the nation.

History

Inside Higher Education was founded in 2004 by Scott Jaschik and Doug Lederman,[3][4] two former editors of The Chronicle of Higher Education, as well as Kathlene Collins, formerly a business manager for The Chronicle.

In 2015, Quad Partners acquired a controlling interest in the publication.[5] Quad Partners had also owned at least five for-profit colleges: Blue Cliff College, Pacific College of Oriental Medicine, Swedish Institute, Trillium College, and Dorsey Schools.[6] Quad Partners also invested in for-profit child development centers, preschools, and student information systems.[7]

As of 2022, Inside Higher Ed’s chief executive officer is Dari Gessner.

Content

Inside Higher Ed publishes daily and content includes news stories, opinion essays and career advice. The publication also hosts several blogs on education topics, including "Confessions of a Community College Dean," "Conditionally Accepted" and "GradHacker."[8] It also publishes Admissions Matters, an online publication about college admissions and enrollment news. In 2018, Inside Higher Ed began publishing supplemental reports in addition to its regular news and editorial offerings.[9] Inside Higher Ed publishes a weekly podcast, "The Key with Inside Higher Ed," in which editors and reporters discuss the challenges posed to higher education by the pandemic and recession, with a particular focus on lower-income students.[10]

Since 2012, Inside Higher Ed and Gallup have partnered to annually survey higher education professionals.[11] In addition, Inside Higher Ed publishes the American Association of University Professors' (AAUP) Faculty Compensation Survey data.

Inside Higher Ed's content regularly appears in other publications such as Slate[12] and Business Insider.[13] Inside Higher Ed has been recognized by The Association for the Study of Higher Education[14] and NASPA: Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education.[15]

Blog

Blog

A blog is an informational website published on the World Wide Web consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries (posts). Posts are typically displayed in reverse chronological order so that the most recent post appears first, at the top of the web page. Until 2009, blogs were usually the work of a single individual, occasionally of a small group, and often covered a single subject or topic. In the 2010s, "multi-author blogs" (MABs) emerged, featuring the writing of multiple authors and sometimes professionally edited. MABs from newspapers, other media outlets, universities, think tanks, advocacy groups, and similar institutions account for an increasing quantity of blog traffic. The rise of Twitter and other "microblogging" systems helps integrate MABs and single-author blogs into the news media. Blog can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
