This CRitical Issue Bibliography (CRIB) Sheet lists resources that focus on maintaining the financial health of an institution of higher education. It describes resources in three areas: (1) tuition strategies; (2) cost containment; and (3) fundraising. The focus of the bibliography, however, is on cost containment and efficiency, and it details models and best practices for cost containment. Higher education should make this a priority to regain public and governmental support. The annotated bibliography describes 68 resources, all of which are in the ERIC database, and 2 Web sites for further information. (SLD)
