Republican governors can translate growing public distrust of higher education into state‑level reforms—using the same playbook that remade welfare and K‑12: regulatory levers, funding changes, governance rules, and accountability measures. The pitch reframes higher ed as a state policy arena where governors (not Congress) can build bipartisan coalitions and enact structural change.
