When #HigherEd systems are designed to meet the needs of disabled learners, they meet the needs of all learners better. How can we build accessible higher education systems that help every student succeed?

Will always be one of my fave middle and high school activities to remember!

Future leaders in action.

Can’t wait to head to the Hill with these students tomorrow!

[Center for Higher Education Policy and Practice @CHEPPtweets]

This week, students from @SNHU are in DC for their Alternative Break Challenge. They’re volunteering at orgs addressing DC food scarcity & taking their experiences to the Hill to ask Congress to do more to address food insecurity & close the college student basic needs gap.

The producers of #BadBunny’s #SuperBowl halftime show explain the wedding sequence:

“The engaged couple wound up with 15 extra wedding announcements, so they sent most to local businesses with the hope of maybe getting some free wedding perks. But the last invite? They were like, ‘Why don’t we send one to Bad Bunny? Lots of people send wedding invitations to him, so why not?’ Bad Bunny’s office reached out, and they thought, ‘Amazing, maybe we’ll get a signed photo.’ But they were invited to a Zoom call, which they thought was kind of weird. On the Zoom call, they learned the plan: Bad Bunny was inviting them to get married at the Super Bowl.

"The couple had planned to make Bad Bunny’s ‘Baile Inolvidable’ their first dance. And so, they went from planning to play it at their wedding to being on the Super Bowl with him live, singing it. And with the bonus prize of Lady Gaga being the wedding singer as well."

Abigail Spanberger, a former congresswoman and CIA agent, will be the first woman to serve as governor of Virginia, following a streak of 74 men. Spanberger's campaign was laser-focused on attacking President Trump's policies. https://t.co/eNJn7dZlu1

On the last day of National #StudentParent Month, we’re celebrating the 1 in 5 #HigherEd parenting students. When colleges meet their needs, student parents can succeed and build better lives for their families. Shout out to @SNHU grads & parents Michael & Taria Richards!

[Brittany Weaver Matthews @BritWeaver]

Excited to share Elijah's story during #nationalstudentparentmonth. In addition to child care & other essential supports, student parents can benefit greatly from flexible degree options including Competency-Based Education. For Elijah, that flexibility made all the difference.

[Center for Higher Education Policy and Practice @CHEPPtweets]

Meet Elijah, a recent @SNHU graduate who attended through Duet in Boston, MA. His story shows what’s possible when #HigherEd meets the needs of #TodaysLearners. Read how Elijah went from some college, no credential to a career in public service.

Excited to see @RepGoodlander lead on such an important issue. Military-Connected learners bring a wealth of skills and knowledge with them to #highered and it is incumbent on federal and institutional policies to use its levers to recognize and validate it for credit.
