university reform
Changing higher education
University reform refers to efforts to change how universities operate—their governance, funding, curriculum, or admissions practices.
Reform movements arise from different directions: calls to make higher education more accessible, more rigorous, more vocational, or less expensive.
The protests demanded university reform, including student representation on the board.
What counts as reform depends entirely on who's reforming and toward what end.
