College Is Coming Apart After Successive, Overlapping Crises
A new Atlantic essay argues American higher education is unraveling under a stack of simultaneous pressures: demographic decline, financial strain, eroding public trust, and now artificial intelligence disrupting the value of a degree. The piece contends these overlapping crises are not temporary setbacks but structural shifts that may permanently reshape who goes to college, what it costs, and whether campuses survive.
