The Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) has recently released a report that details international student enrollment in the U.S. has increased since 2006, but those increases may not be indicative of continued growth in the future. The international enrollment survey, conducted by CGS, reports that enrollment is up seven percent from 2006, which is the largest increase since 2002.

However, first-time enrollments increased only four percent, which is down from a 12 percent gain in 2006. First-time enrollment figures are the most indicative of future growth. “In absolute terms, in absolute numbers, we’re still below where we were in the years before the 9-11 impacts,” said Debra W. Stewart, president of CGS.

Other survey findings include that institutions with smaller international student populations experienced the largest enrollment increases. Chinese international student enrollment grew the most, up 15 percent, while Indian student enrollment grew by 14 percent. The business and engineering fields saw the largest increases.

Despite the cloudy future of international student enrollment in the U.S., institutes of higher education are paying attention to the issue. According to the survey, 87 percent of graduate deans were involved in outreach to international students in the past two years. Thirty-six percent participated in international recruitment events, while 48 percent visited foreign institutions in order to partner up.

The Education Department has issues new regulations, which will begin in July, to control the relationships between colleges and lenders. This is in response to months of controversy about questionable dealings between lenders and the colleges who offer the lenders’ services to their students.

According to the new regulations, colleges must give students preferred lender lists that contain at least three choices of lenders. In addition, the Education Department ruled that federal law supersedes state law.

The Education Department, beginning in July, will have the right to the proceeds of all defaulted Perkins Loans, which colleges fear may cost them millions. The new regulations also banned exit interviews conducted by lenders with graduating students.

According to Online Nation: Five Years of Growth in Online Learning, a report recently released by the Sloan Foundation in conjunction with the Babson Survey Research Group, online enrollments are continuing to grow, but at a slower rate than in years before.

The report surveyed 4,500 institutions of higher education of various types. It found that in the fall of 2006 3.5 million students took at least one online course, which showed an increase of 9.7 percent from 2005. However, that number has increased much slower than during 2005, when it saw an increase of 36.5 percent. Community colleges saw the largest increases.

The report tracked growth in online enrollment between 2002 and 2206:

Doctoral/Research Programs had 566,725 online enrollments, which showed a 21.7 percent increase.

Master’s Programs had 686,337 online enrollments in 2006, showing an increase of 19.6 percent since 2002.

Baccalaureate Programs had 170,754 online enrollments, which is an increase of 6.9 percent.

Community Colleges had 1,097,905 online enrollments, with the largest increase of 24 percent since 2002.

Specialized Programs were close behind with 88,558 online enrollments and an increase of 22.3 percent.

While most institutions expected an increase in online enrollment, according to the report, the growth will continue to occur at a slower rate than in years past.

The Dalai Lama was recently named a Presidential Distinguished Professor at Emory University, located in Atlanta, Ga.

At a ceremony at Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta, the Dalai Lama told the crowd to use education for the benefit of the world, rather than to obtain fame and fortune.

As a Presidential Distinguished Professor, the Dalai Lama will occasionally visit Emory, and will instruct students and faculty at the university’s Dharamsala, India-based study abroad program.

According to a report released today by the non-profit College Board, average tuition and fees for college are growing at twice the rate of inflation.

Students who enroll in four-year public colleges are paying 6.6 percent more than last year, while those attending four-year private institutions are paying 6.3 percent more. The net price at a four-year public college is $560 more expensive than 10 years ago, which is 31 percent above the general inflation rate–the worst it has been in 30 years.

Net prices at two-year community colleges have risen by 4.2 percent.

The report also indicates that students are using more private loan lenders than government lenders. Borrowing for college grew 12 percent in the past year, to a total of $14.5 million. Borrowing may not be increasing as much from year-to-year these days, but it has grown tenfold over the past decade.

The report did not mention graduate schools, but it is safe to say that this trend could reach the graduate level soon.

The House of Representatives Science Subcommittee on Research and Science Education recently held a hearing focused on how the federal government can help increase the participation of females in the STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) fields. The hearing also focused on increasing the number of women in faculty positions in the STEM fields. The subcommittee discussed establishing a new agency that would tweak Title IX, the 1972 gender equality law. Title IX would be modified to better cover the academic arena.

Among the possible initiatives that came about as a result of the hearing were grants and incentives aimed at females. They also discussed offering childcare grants to female professors, more flexible timelines for professors with young children, making salaries more equal and enhancing sensitivity to gender bias in the hiring process.

According to an article in The New York Times, thank-you notes from students to admissions offices are becoming just another part of the process. While it is unlikely that a note will put you over the edge of being accepted into a school, many high school college advisors are encouraging their students to sen thank-you notes along with the rest of their appilcation documents.

The Times quoted Janet L. Rapelye, dean of admissions at Princeton as saying: “Is it necessary to write a thank-you note? No. But I’m still in favor of them. Expressing gratitude is a lovely quality.”

Will your college application be accompanied by a thank-you note?

Harvard University recently released a survey entitled, “The Social and Political Views of American Professors,” which reveals that professors at U.S. institutions of higher education are more moderate than they are liberal.

Many people believe that professors tend to be more liberal and radical than other groups in the U.S., but the survey found that there are more faculty members who consider themselves moderate than liberal. In addition, it was revealed that younger professors are much less likely to adopt a radical stance than their older counterparts.

The survey gave professors seven political categories to choose from, and the results were reported as follows:

Extremely liberal: 9.4%

Liberal: 34.7%

Slightly Liberal: 18.1%

Middle of the Road: 18.0%

Slightly Conservative: 10.5%

Conservative: 8.0%

Very Conservative: 1.2%

The survey indicated that the two “slightly” categories and the “extremely” categories contained significant differences for both liberals and conservatives. Therefore, the survey argued that there are three political groups within academia: Liberal, moderate and conservative. The professors surveyed were categorized as such:

Liberal: 44.1%

Moderate: 46.1%

Conservative: 9.2%

While liberals still outnumber conservatives at U.S. colleges and universities when it comes to faculty, the moderate group comes out on top.

For some time now, there has been a trend in higher education that has lead to Ph.D. programs becoming drawn out over several years. According to the National Science Foundation, the average student works toward a Ph.D. for 8.2 years. For education Ph.D. students it can often take 13 years. In addition, the average Ph.D. holder is the age of 33 by the time they receive their degree.

Some students and analysts blame the fact that universities require their students to teach several classes during their quest for a doctoral degree, causing students to need significantly more time to graduate. In response to the length of doctoral programs, many universities, such as Princeton, have begun to set stricter timelines and restricting the amount of courses students are required to teach.

However, most universities cannot afford to speed up the programs because they need doctoral students as instructors at their institutions. Should state legislatures and trustees get involved in order to speed up the Ph.D. process?
