International Higher Education (IHE) seeks a lively writing style. We are not a scholarly journal, but rather a periodical that seeks to inform its readers through short, well-written articles. We emphasize analysis in our articles, and we encourage our authors to include relevant statistics where needed, although (as noted below) not in tables or graphs.
