Innovation in Mergers and Acquisitions with 3 Universities

Change efforts are not set in stone, so expect things to evolve. This happened with University of Bridgeport, which was slated to be consumed by three area universities. However, when one university withdrew from the deal, the University of Bridgeport got a new lease on life through working with Goodwin University.

These types of partnerships create the opportunity to leverage best practices and efficiencies.

Transparency is critical when going through major change. This transparency needs to extend to faculty and staff, students, former students, community members, accreditors, and policymakers.
