USNH head’s goals: online classes, sharing - KEVIN LANDRIGAN, Concord Telegraph

The new acting chancellor of the University System of New Hampshire says all four public institutions need to become “more nimble” to compete with private and public colleges nationally. In an interview with The Telegraph, Dr. Todd Leach said expanded use of online education and getting the four campuses to share their strengths are top priorities of his brief tenure at the top. “We know higher ed is going through enormous amounts of challenges nationally,” Leach said. “The board of trustees put in place a number of changes intended to help the four institutions become more nimble and more competitive in the public and private education marketplace,” Leach said. http://www.nashuatelegraph.com/news/politics/997315-476/usnh-heads-goals-online-classes-sharing.html
