Accountability in higher education: Using evidence to inform regulatory policy

On Tuesday, September 8, the Brookings Center on Regulation and Markets will present and discuss new research on regulation and accountability in higher education. Forthcoming papers will provide new evidence on topics ranging from predicting college closures, measuring outcomes of GI Bill beneficiaries, assessing the success of postsecondary programs, and helping students make better choices. The discussion will examine how to use this evidence to protect the financial aid investments taxpayers make and how to improve the outcomes of students.
