40. Can California Still Lead the Way in Higher Ed?
From Higher Ed Spotlight · 25:56
Show by Antica Productions / Chegg
Today, we're turning our attention to the world of higher education in California — a state where, in 1960, a master plan for higher ed was released that was hailed as a model for other states. However, six decades later, it may need a critical update to tackle current challenges in access and affordability. Su Jin Jez, CEO of California Competes, joins us to discuss the issues facing California colleges and universities – from equity gaps to better support for adult learners – and how their response may have lessons for other states. A key issue she highlights is California's need for a coordinating entity at the state level to address turf battles within the higher ed system. Higher Ed Spotlight is sponsored by Chegg's Center for Digital Learning and aims to explore the future of higher education. It is produced by Antica Productions.
