Published periodically by the Council of Independent Colleges, the Digest of Recent Research highlights timely research and practical resources with a focus on topics of relevance to presidents and other leaders of independent colleges and universities.
Each Digest addresses a theme, with summaries of selected articles and resources that can inform action for the leadership of independent colleges and universities. John M. Braxton, professor of higher education at Vanderbilt University, served as editor for the first three issues, and Matthew J. Mayhew, William Ray and Marie Adamson Flesher Professor of Educational Administration at Ohio State University served as editor from June 2018 through March 2024. The Council of Independent Colleges is grateful to the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations for their support of this series.
The article summaries in the Digest of Recent Research are available separately on CIC’s website below. For questions or comments about the Digest, please contact Ellen Peters, director of strategic research and assessment, at epeters@cic.edu.
