The postsecondary world has been greatly enhanced over the past generations. As others have observed, from the 1970s onward colleges and universities expanded their curricula. The professoriate, staff, and students became gradually more diverse. American research output led and helped change the world. Partly in response, more international students traveled to the United States while total enrollment surged to the highest levels in history.1  \nYet this institutional ascent ran into 21st-century obstacles. The 2008 financial panic, the resulting economic downturn, and the slow, uneven recovery process therefrom dealt many institutions severe blows, requiring years of painful adjustments.
