My partner, Tom Hayes, just sent me this link to higher ed trends recently identified by SCUP. Among they key trends in higher ed, they identify:

1. Mental health of college students as an increasing concern

2. The relationship between campuses and communities is likely to grow stronger

3. Global applicants to U.S. colleges and universities continues to go down

4. The ability to offer online education in third-world countries continues to be constrained

5. 89% of students have a presence on Facebook

SCUP releases these trends once or twice a year and the report is definitely worth a looksie. You can get back issue that are up to four years old here.
