Abstract
Higher education is increasingly facing a condition of financial exigency. A number of colleges and universities have closed; almost all have had to curtail their aspirations and make sacrifices in their operations. While the university is big business, it does not readily lend itself to many of the conventional measures of and improvements in productivity. But the industrial engineer can, and indeed must, help higher education. Some of the unique features of the university are treated herein along with recommendations for industrial engineering study.Keywords
