HIGHER EDUCATION NEWS -- U.S.

CAMPUS CELLS
By Scott Jaschik of Inside Higher Ed / July 13
This fall colleges will take phone technologies in new directions - dealing with academics, student safety, and some professors' greatest annoyance.

ORGANIZING THE CAMPUS LEFT
By Elia Powers of Inside Higher Ed / July 13
Campus activism is stronger and more sophisticated than ever. That message came from Tom Matzzie, Washington director of MoveOn.org, the progressive political action group.

COLLEGES MUST PLAN BETTER TO ATTRACT AND KEEP KEY PERSONNEL, PANEL SPEAKERS SAY
By Jeffrey Selingo of The Chronicle of Higher Education / July 13
Unless campus leaders do more to identify and nurture new talent, higher education will face a leadership crisis in the coming decades as the baby-boom generation of college administrators retires and the pool of potential replacements shrinks. That warning came from two consultants from Witt/Kieffer, the executive-search firm, during a session on creating a leadership pipeline at the "Campus of the Future" conference here, a combined meeting of three higher-education associations: the National Association of College and University Business Officers, the Association of Higher Education Facilities Officers, and the Society for College and University Planning.

SUSTAINABILITY IS FAVORED MORE IN THEORY THAN IN PRACTICE, SPEAKERS SAY
By Scott Carlson of The Chronicle of Higher Education / July 13
When it comes to sustainability, the good news is that colleges seem committed to doing something about it in the future. The bad news is that they have a long road ahead of them, and, in some cases, they are traveling in the wrong direction. That was the conclusion of Shelley M. Kaplan, associate vice president for facilities management at Babson College, and Ellen Watts, a principal at the firm Architerra, who discussed the "state of sustainability in higher education" at the "Campus of the Future" conference here [Honolulu].
