Talent and ability exist within every person, but the traditional design of #highered and the #workforce fails to acknowledge the inherent potential within so many. We are excited to support this campaign by @OpptyatWork to redefine what it means to be a skilled worker.

How many of those arguing short-term #pell shouldn't extend to #online programs are doing so from the comfort of their homes? We live in a world of #remotework and #remotelearning. I appreciate the members of the @PresidentsForum speaking out on this. diverseeducation.com/leadership-pol…
While some universities are closing or reducing the scope of their work in teacher education, the @wgu Teachers College team is leaning in on preparing next-gen teachers and leaders. Check out the WGU Loves Techers Scholarship here: wgu.edu/financial-aid-…
Is college really worth it? Yes, but traditional #highered isn’t the best option for all #students. I’m teaming up with @DrBethAkers for a panel submission to @SXSWEDU where we’d discuss student ROI & more. Vote for our panel! bit.ly/3jC4o7c
I’m excited to join @Pulsipher_WGU & @DrBethAkers at @asugsvsummit for a discussion focused on moving beyond the costs of #highered and considering questions of its value. Learn more and register: bit.ly/3lDbjj3

@Pulsipher_WGU on @wgu's approach to supporting students. Instead of students having to raise their hand for help: "We make it very deliberate and proactive to engage our students." #ShiftSummit
Looking forward to participating in @CampusLogic's #ShiftSummit this week! In my presentation, I’ll discuss @wgu’s success with reducing debt through the psychology of money & how legislative changes could spur innovation in #financialaid. Learn more: bit.ly/3cfCF9n
My colleagues and I are teaming up for a panel submission to @SXSWEDU! We’re hoping to share our insights about #studentloans and the future of paying for #highered, but we need your votes to make it to the #SXSWEDU stage! Vote for our panel: panelpicker.sxsw.com/vote/111620
Excited to talk w/ @DrBethAkers @AlisonRGriffin & Patti Kohler @asugsvsummit today. We need #Innovation in #FinancialAid to reduce barriers to #highered & designed for lifelong learning. Join us at 3 MT: bit.ly/3jhGlcc

National #studentloan debt rises to $1.7m. @ElDavis_Jr reports many states are seeing reductions, including our home state #Utah. #HigherEd can respond with #affordable tuition and #ResponsibleBorrowing. @wgu grads continue to reduce their debt! @usnews bit.ly/3l44SCX

Data from the Fed Reserve Bank of NY shows #studentloandebt is up another $10B to $1.51T. Instead of increasing subsidies for an increasingly expensive product, we need to change the conversation to how we can reduce costs & make college more #affordable. nyfed.org/2SpL6FK
The Trump administration wants to limit Parent PLUS borrowing to $26,500. Currently, parents can borrow up to full cost of attendance (minus any financial aid) but many families are stuck with debt they can't repay for a child's education. insidehighered.com/news/2019/04/1…
How does the lack of transparency within and across student fin aid award letters make navigating the fin aid system more challenging? A recent report from @NewAmerica and @uAspire has informed our thinking. Learn how in the latest #WhatWeAreReading post! bit.ly/2Z9hlKW
Rising #studentloan debt reminiscent of subprime mortgage crisis, according to @CRLONLINE President @CRLMike as reported by @Chris_ArnoldNPR @NPR. News like this highlights the need for responsible borrowing initiatives (like ours @wgu). n.pr/2r6D1Lq @BobCollinsWGU

Hope you tuned in for my ad nauseam rambling about the virtues of ISAs and the need for regulation! Thanks for a fun conversation, friends!
@DrBethAkers @BobCollinsWGU Right now! Timely conversation about innovating #financialaid with @wgu at the @asugsvsummit.
1/2 It's not political, it's aspirational to note that @repjohnlewis lived a life of "good trouble" making. He is an icon for good-trouble makers because he used his skill & will to do whatever he could at whatever age & stage to make this world a better, fairer, & kinder place
Personal update: I am passionate about building equitable pathways to opportunity. I believe in the power of #disruptiveinnovation. I believe that every person matters, and has incredible potential. For these reasons, I am excited to announce that I have joined @wgu.
WGU has set aside $10 million in emergency aid funds to help current and new students experiencing hardships as a result of #COVID19. We’re also working to raise another $10 million in matching donations to provide even more support to our students. bit.ly/35Xh5Cu
