From International Student to Higher Ed Leader: Suahil Housholder on Challenges & Innovation at Small Private Universities

Join Global Student Voices host Scott R. Martin in conversation with Suahil Housholder, VP for Finance and CFO at Anderson University.

Suahil shares her inspiring journey from international student in the Cayman Islands to a leadership role in U.S. higher education. This episode dives into the major challenges facing small private universities today—enrollment pressures, financial sustainability, and the evolving value of a degree.

Hear how Anderson University is adapting through initiatives like dual credit programs, micro-credentials, online learning, and expanded graduate offerings. Suahil also emphasizes the unique benefits of the on-campus experience, especially for students seeking close-knit community and mentorship.

We also discuss her powerful contribution to the book Community College is College, which challenges misconceptions about community colleges and highlights them as valuable options for both high-achieving and international students.
