Description
The triple tsunami of Covid-19, the resulting economic downturn, and the imperative to center racial equity in our student-success efforts and confront systemic racism in colleges’ own structures, will have major and lasting effects on community colleges. The most notable impact is to lay bare, and exacerbate, many of the most pressing challenges facing community colleges, including inequity in student outcomes. Successful institutions will need to find creative ways to serve vulnerable students and make their communities’ social, economic, and cultural success central to their missions. Join Achieving the Dream President and CEO, Dr. Karen Stout, as she examines how the pandemic will shape higher education in the years to come and shares her perspective on what the college of the future may look like.
