The Jandris Center for Innovative Higher Education and partners on the Higher Ed Redesign Initiative (College of Design, Midwestern Higher Ed Compact) presented prototypes that came out of a year-long  project at the Midwestern Higher Education Compact (MHEC) summer meeting held June 5, 2014 at the St. Paul Hotel.

“What would you get if you asked a group of designers to help solve some of the biggest puzzles in higher education: how to make college less expensive and more accessible?”

The Jandris Center, housed in the Department of Organizational Leadership, Policy, and Development (OLPD), strives to create an imaginative, dynamic community committed to addressing the most pressing problems facing higher education and society. In doing so, the Center brings together people and groups—locally, nationally, and internationally—to critique and redesign postsecondary policies and practices to meet the needs of a changing world.
