When the Supreme Court reversed the 1984 Chevron ruling in June, the overwhelming majority of the folks in higher education I’ve talked to breathed a (quiet) sigh of relief, regardless of political orientation.

The original Chevron ruling, which gave regulatory agencies significant latitude in establishing regulations that Congress hadn’t directly addressed in legislation, has created a series of whiplash events for those leading colleges and universities over the past decade.

Why? Every time a new administration came into office, it seemed that many higher education regulations would change dramatically.
