I write this post from Philadelphia, a great historic center, and a long time home of Benjamin Franklin.  I’m thinking about our extraordinary research universities and all that they have meant and continue to mean for our nation.  I’m thinking of an often quoted Franklin adage and the guidance it brings to mind for higher education today. “An investment in knowledge always pay the best interest.” (in Benjamin Franklin, The Way to Wealth, 1758).

UNLV President Keith E. Whitfield was a dedicated user of Academic Analytics during his time as provost at Wayne State University, using the platform to improve faculty research performance, promote interdisciplinary collaboration, and advance the university’s research goals. He brings this experience to UNLV, where he aims to see Academic Analytics similarly drive data-informed decisions and further elevate the university’s research capacity.
