We don't have a strategic vision for higher education in Texas. We need to do a careful survey of what we're going to need . . . to accommodate these hundreds of thousands of students we're trying to attract. The kind of laissez-faire system of higher education we've had in the state historically won't get us there.

Are we trying to do too much with limited resources? We want every institution to have an opportunity to be great in regard to its particular mission. That mission may not and probably will not include comprehensive doctoral programs in all cases.
