A small school facing enrollment challenges and under threat from powerful external forces makes tough choices to reinvent itself. Sound familiar? Think we’re talking about an independent school? Not quite.

In this episode of The Enrollment Spectrum Podcast we talk with Dr. Susan D. Stuebner, President of Colby-Sawyer College and take lessons from higher ed that will be critical for independent schools of the future. We talk about the recent acquisition of Marlboro College, innovative college programs like this two year academy, and the bold steps Colby-Sawyer college is taking.
