Leading Into Tomorrow...

Great leaders watch the future.
The president of Sony has a 200-year plan for the company.
American leaders know that companies will be facing a educated workforce shortage within the next 20 years.

Now some leaders are stepping forward to do something.

Solutions for Our Future is

"a national initiative to establish a dialogue about the critical role colleges and universities play in serving the public, solving pressing societal needs, and preparing people for our country's future."

This is a organization of leaders from over 400 colleges and universities who are seeking to raise awareness of the mission-critical impact that higher education has on our economy.

For a hilarious PSA (Public Service Announcement), click here and scroll down to the "First Responders" file. This PSA shows the importance of higher education in the community.

BOTTOM LINE: Smart Leaders support Higher Education, because Higher Education will produce the leaders of tomorrow.
