Two-thirds of college and university presidents are confident their schools will be financially stable over the coming five years, but that confidence level drops off when the outlook is 10 years into the future, according to a survey by Inside Higher Ed that was taken before the ongoing Wuhan coronavirus crisis grabbed hold of the United States.
The survey comes as the Dow Jones Industrial Average seesaws daily between historic drops and dramatic leaps, ending March 17 more than 1,000 points higher than the previous day, to land at 21,237 after hovering above 29,000 just a month ago.
