I just can’t imagine losing a CHILD that you’ve done everything in your YOUR power to protect, and you send them to school where it should be safe, but the government is more concerned about them reading about black/LGBTQ people than their actual safety What do you do after that
Proud to moderate two panels at @WUNetwork AGM. Honored to share the stage with great journalists: @Brown_e_Points @JohnRoss49 and @ThePIENews ’s Nick Cuthbert and agency leaders from @PhillipsConnect, @MeropaPR and @World_100. Many thanks for coming to Lausanne. #wun #highered

COVID-19 or not, current students are about as likely to have considered withdrawing in late 2021. Read Gallup and @LuminaFound’s The State of Higher Education 2022 Report to learn more: on.gallup.com/3rH43oK

“61 percent of student fathers drop out of college without degrees…” For Black and Latino fathers its even worse.

Sobering stats from @NSClearinghouse and @npr_ed.

>1 million fewer students are enrolled in college now than before the pandemic began Final #s from @NSClearinghouse show fall 21 down nearly 500k students That’s the largest 2-year decline in 50 years 👂why that matters on @MorningEdition @AMartinezLA npr.org/2022/01/13/107252947…

More than 1 million fewer students are in college. Here's how that impacts the economy

People are sitting out college in droves. During the pandemic, undergraduate enrollment has dropped nearly 7%. The long-term effects of this decline could have a dramatic impact on the economy.

COVID continues to impact business operations at many colleges and universities. @MoravianU is cluster hiring in the nursing department due to retirements. @RWJonesAgency foxbusiness.com/healthcare/c…
COVID will continue to highlight America's nursing shortage in 2022 and the looming ‘silver tsunami'

COVID will continue to highlight America's nursing shortage in 2022 and the looming ‘silver tsunami'

Large and growing numbers of new recruits are applying to nursing programs nationwide. We should be concerned that there won’t be enough faculty there to greet them when they arrive.

Glad @mariaspov wroteabout stranded credits. @MartinKurzweil and @IthakaSR have done a lot of work on a severe problem in higher ed. “You can take the concept an apply it almost anywhere else.” Details. however, will be state specific. insidehighered.com/news/2022…
