The Council on Public Higher Education (COPHE) has issued a new publication that explains how investing in Missouri’s public universities creates opportunities and adds value to the state:
-
Public universities develop the advanced workforce of the 21st century.
-
Public universities “teach the teachers.” Our graduates are educating the state’s next generation of leaders, from preschool through doctoral programs.
-
Public universities fuel the economic engine of Missouri every day of every year.
-
Public universities improve the quality of life in Missouri by providing public benefits, as well as personal benefits.
I encourage you to read and share this publication as we continue to make the case for investing in Missouri’s public universities.
