Today's Students Coalition

📢 It’s official! Welcome to our new LinkedIn page, Today's Students Coalition, formerly Higher Learning Advocates (and meet our new logomark!).🧡 In June, we announced HLA would transition its operations and continue its work under the banner of TSC, a coalition formed by HLA in 2019 that sits at the heart of an extensive national network united for #todaysstudents. Looking forward, we’re eagerly preparing to launch and reveal the redesigned todaysstudents.org in the coming days, introduce a series of new student voices, and share updates on our work as a coalition. Stay tuned and thank you for being here. #UnitedForTodaysStudents

According to Gallup and Lumina Foundation’s State of Higher Education 2024 Report, 51% of currently unenrolled adults say they are likely to enroll in higher education in the next five years. That’s a significant number of potential new students. But adult learners have different needs and responsibilities than their younger counterparts. “To better serve today’s students, postsecondary institutions must acknowledge their lived experiences and the multiple responsibilities their students carry outside the classroom,” writes Julie Peller, Executive Director of Higher Learning Advocates, for Diverse: Issues In Higher Education. Peller outlines three strategies college leaders should consider: 1️⃣ Meet students where they are 2️⃣ Design instruction around their responsibilities 3️⃣ Provide wrap-around support alongside financial assistance #highereducation #enrollmentcliff #collegestudents https://lnkd.in/gVkS-Yhg
