Three decades ago, foreign students at Harvard University accounted for just 11 percent of the total student body. Today, that number stands at 26 percent.
Like other prestigious U.S. universities, Harvard for years has been cashing in on its global cache to recruit the world’s best students. Now, however, the booming international enrollment has left colleges vulnerable to a new line of attack from President Donald Trump.
While other schools have been cracking down on students using artificial intelligence, leaders at The Ohio State University say all of the institution's students will be using it starting this fall.
Ohio State’s AI Fluency Initiative will embed AI education throughout the undergraduate curriculum.

This June, struggling California community colleges will stop getting yearly cost-of-living increases to their budgets. These increases have kept many districts afloat for the past six years while community colleges adjusted to a new funding method based on district performance rather than enrollment numbers alone.

The Trump administration terminated a key contract to train college officials on how to report data to the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System, a move that could further hamper the U.S. Department of Education's data infrastructure.
IPEDS survey information has long been critical to higher education research. But in order to access and utilize the data, institutions need to know how to complete the survey properly, and researchers need to know how to navigate the database.
