This week, Education Dive unveiled its 2016 Dive Awards for K-12 and higher education, highlighting top administrators, institutions, districts, startups, policies, legal issues and more in both spaces.

Meanwhile, for-profit higher ed is expected to flourish once again under the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump. Intense federal scrutiny of that sector has already made a significant impact, however, and non-profit Colorado Heights University is the latest to be affected. The institution, located in Denver, announced this week it will close next year due to falling enrollment and pressure on its accreditor, the Accrediting Council of Independent Colleges and Schools, which oversees a number of for-profits.
