A new report from Inside Higher Education says the university system is bleeding jobs.

The report, published Tuesday, found that the higher education sector lost 300 jobs in December, and a total of over 9,000 positions were cut through layoffs and buyouts in 2025, which the report stated is “undoubtedly an undercount due to unreported personnel actions.”
