	Assessing and measuring the social effects of Higher Education (HE) institutions — methodological reflections
	In theory and practice of public policies are increasingly talking about the need to build policies based on the evidence. Similarly, more and more is expected of managers of the higher education sector: more frequent use of data for decision-making and reliable, supported by data assessment of the effects of implemented policies. These policies may increase or decrease the ability to generate the higher education outcomes that are socially beneficial. This article will address the dilemmas associated with the measurement of the social effects of Higher Education institutions, special emphasis will be placed on the specific dilemmas for the Polish academic sector. The authors will try to answer the questions: whether this measurement is possible and whether it is real in Polish HE sector, what are the costs and benefits related with this assessment.
