...Best College Presidents. These days, college presidents are no longer leaders of insular academic institutions. They are CEOs of knowledge businesses that spur the local and national economies and foster innovation on a global scale. Yes, they still do a lot of fundraising (which is even harder in a down economy), but every entrepreneur needs to do that, and the best college presidents are forward-looking entrepreneurs of education.
