We heard several promising and actionable student success recommendations from these leaders at the closing plenary, including: ✔ Focus on the mission ✔ Engage your stakeholders ✔ Disaggregate the data ✔ Be courageous to make changes (even if surrounded by "CAVE People" Citizens Against Virtually Everything) ✔ Demonstrate the ROI with post-graduation outcomes #MSCHE2023 👏🏽

This week I've been attending the NECHE Annual Meeting. My thinking about higher education, inside and outside of New England, has been pushed over the last few days. One of my favorite sessions is the News Flash! Session with Inside Higher Ed's founder Scott Jaschik. Hearing him provide his annual Top 10 list of issues for higher education leaders to look out has proven to be prescient over the years. For those interested, here is his list from this year: 1. Israel/Hamas War. (N.B., he shared this before yesterday's hearing in Washington) 2. Many campuses will close in the next year. 3. Demise of Affirmative Action. 4. Legacy Admissions. 5. Decline in enrollment at Community Colleges 6. Student Debt. 7. Faculty morale. 8. Budget cuts. 9. Direct admissions. 10. President Trump. A current throughout each of these topics: a lack of trust in higher education. The challenge for leaders is to go beyond engendering trust in your own institution, but in the role that higher education can play nationally. Not on this year's list, AI. It will be interesting to see how these matters will play out over the next year, and how higher ed will respond to this charge to be transparent about its value proposition for society. #NECHE2023 #highereducation #topten https://lnkd.in/gQ-qMGXv

In the interest of full transparency, I also mentioned pimple popping videos.

So, so excited to announce that I will be presenting a full-day pre-conference workshop at the Association for the Assessment of Learning in Higher Education (AALHE) Annual Conference this June with the extraordinary Divya Bheda, PhD: Many Paths to Justice: Actionable Strategies for Transforming Assessment Practices through an Anti-Racist Lens (All audiences) Equity gaps persist throughout higher education. We want to be agents of change, but lack practical strategies for dismantling racialized barriers. In this highly-interactive workshop, we examine Okun’s framework of White Supremacy Culture, which positions White Supremacy not as individual bias, but as a network of cultural beliefs, attitudes, and structures, both covert and overt, that uphold the false notion that whiteness itself is valuable. We will explicate its components and foster reflective discussions of how they have shaped assessment. Participants will co-construct actionable strategies to disrupt White Supremacy Culture in higher education. The goal is not to shame or blame, but to foster a brave space in which to transform assessment toward social justice. This is far and away my favorite conference to attend, so please join us!

PEOPLE ONLY WORKING TOGETHER FOR A COMMON GOAL. "IN THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS." THUS DOESN'T THAT ALSO INCLUDE THE HOMELESS. THE HOMELESS ARE OUT THERE. ARE YOU.? HOMELESS.. AN OPPORTUNITY MISUNDERSTOOD. The modern economic system is a market economy, which is a capitalist economy where people, not the government--NOT THE GOVERNMENT--own most businesses. In a capitalist economy, prices allocate capital and labor between competing uses, and capital assets like factories, mines, and railroads can be privately owned and controlled. https://lnkd.in/eB98Jnv9 GOOGLE EXAMPLE, IF YOU NEED TO RAISE MONEY FOR ANY REASON OR MORE SO LETS SAY THE "HOMELESS" PROBLEM WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE TIME & MONEY CONSUMING BUT IN ONE DIRECTION TOWARD THE HOMELESS.
