This year's NASPA Comference on Student Success in Higher Education served as a great opportunity to learn, grow, and engage. Being surrounded by over 1,700 change agents was impactful and invigorating as I prepare for the upcoming academic year. #SSHE24.

Thank your for time with us and for your efforts in the name of educational attainment!

SC Association for College Admission Counseling Annual Legislative Day! Learned SO much listening & talking w/HS Counselors & College Admission Counselors this morning… about current legislative bills & state budget items which could have an impact on S.C. colleges and schools.

Another first-gen student celebration week in the books! Students participated in various events including an upstate first-gen bowling takeover and the induction of our first class of Alpha Alpha Alpha national honor society members. #firstgen #celebratefirstgen #woffordfirsts

I had an amazing time earlier this week engaging fellow champions of postsecondary access at the 2023 NCAN Conference. It is imperative that we advocate for educational equity...our future depends on it! #collegeaccess #ncan2023

What an incredible time with the new Gateway Scholars last week. This is such extraordinary group and program and look forward to witnessing all of the greatness they will accomplish.

[Wofford College @woffordcollege]

A new cohort of Gateway Scholars attended a week of workshops and participated in activities to get familiar with Wofford's campus. Learn more about the impact this program has had on other Wofford College students:https://t.co/tAa0vcZ0Pw #gatewayscholars #terriers

NASPA condemns SCOTUS decision on race-conscious admissions. More than ever, we must affirm that fostering an inclusive campus remains an integral part of the mission of higher ed, and is key to cultivating academic inquiry and advancing student success.

@DrLTMiles Can't wait!

The 2023 iCAN Spartanburg Summer Institute is always a great opportunity for high school Citizen Scholars to gain a unique experience on a college campus while preparing for college entry. I had a great time engaging with this year’s group and looking to the upcoming school year.

@joebeKoolin I liked both films, but Son of Batman was deeper on more levels since you see the development of Bruce and Damien, Dick potentially being jealous of Damien, Batman and Bruce Wayne both being exposed. Not to mention the fight between Batman/father and Robin/son 🙌🏾.
