Georgetown Public Library Hewlett Room

Colleges are closing. Costs are rising. The traditional degree is being questioned. So why is Southwestern University investing, building, and growing after 186 years? This presentation pulls back the curtain on how one liberal arts university is rewriting its playbook—from a personalized four-year student roadmap to a bold 560-acre development designed to connect education, careers, and everyday life. You’ll leave with a behind-the-scenes look at what’s coming to campus and Georgetown—and a clearer picture of what higher education may become in the next decade.
