A few thoughts I wrote down after my first #highered conference in years (@ACEducation)... Stakes are high so let's not waste a good crisis. What do you think should be on this list and how do we come out of this better off? https://t.co/gKaEBJUwkn

"It's just a tool though." 😹
"Unimaginable" but somehow he imagined it. Brilliant ⚡

Cougs, we're joining an effort to increase degree/credential completion, improve social mobility, & reduce student debt. By taking a data-driven approach to student success, we'll clearly show the numerous advantages associated with a college degree. #WSU https://t.co/LtE2PxEYEw

Love how @ameliaparnell calls out the importance of recognizing students as decision makers - yes! 👏

[JPSS/CPS @postsec_success]

These women are so inspiring. They represent exactly why everyone at #2022caelconference works so hard to support adult learners.

@ErinAHennessy @insidehighered Yes! 🙌

"We also need to stop asking low income families to prove over and over they're low income - it's demoralizing and stigmatizing." ~@PresidentHurd #ACE2022SD

[Cat Parkay @catparkay]

New role model alert - @PresidentHurd 👏 "To see 60+% of us think race relations on our campuses are in good shape is chilling. This is a moment when we need to be courageous and stop sticking our head in the sand." #ace2022sd

[Cat Parkay @catparkay]

Some interesting gaps surfaced in this year's @insidehighered survey of presidents - curious to hear this panel's thoughts distinguishing between optimism and blind faith 🍿 #ace2022sd

[Dr. Gregory Washington @GMUPres]

In his 43+ years as president of @_HamptonU, Bill Harvey has produced 38,000 graduates 🎓, added 30 new buildings & produced 17 leaders for other universities! #BlackExcellence #Ace2022 #ACE2022SD @ACEducation

[Cat Parkay @catparkay]

"Collective competence matters more than individual." President Harvey of Hampton University on the importance of teamwork and character in leadership. #ace2022sd

[Michael Itzkowitz @mikeitzkowitz]

NEW PAPER ALERT: What if instead of ranking schools by institutional prestige and selectivity, we placed value on those that lifted up the most students and left them better off?

Harvard, 👉#4, moves to #847.
Yale, 👉#5, moves to #495.
