The future of #highered is bright, with colleges and universities serving as lifelong partners for lifelong learning. Great panel discussion today at @globeevents Summit featuring @assumption_u President Greg Weiner and @babson President Stephen Spinelli.
It’s a packed room at the @bostonchamber Government Affairs forum with @MayorWu
How should lawmakers define and measure the worth of a degree and the postsecondary experience? Under a panel discussion now which includes @smithcollege President Sarah Willie-LeBreton and @MassDHE Commissioner Noe Ortega @NCSLorg #ncslsummit
"The @MassGovernor is making it clear MA stands for science and research; looking at the longer-term is critical to leverage the unique higher ed research ecosystem, a cornerstone of the state’s economy," said AICUM CEO @rob_mccarron. We were proud to participate today.
For every dollar invested in scientific research, Massachusetts sees double the economic benefit. New jobs. New businesses. New cures and discoveries. That's what the DRIVE Initiative is all about. Investing in discovery is good for the world — and it’s a good deal.
Over 67% surveyed view the nation’s colleges/universities as a “positive” influence on society. A majority of registered voters rejected the administration’s push to penalize colleges over 'woke' ideology & nearly 68% disapproved of cutting research funds & targeting DEI programs
A strong majority of voters across Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island disapprove of President Trump’s job in office so far, according to a new Boston Globe and Suffolk University poll. Today's Starting Point dives into other key takeaways. trib.al/aa5W0ah
#ICYMI "'Eds and meds' have been the backbone of several of the area’s business sectors...In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to find any sector that doesn’t get a sizable percentage of its revenue from those institutions."
All Massachusetts residents — not just those with direct ties to local college and university employers — ought to oppose the cuts the Trump Administration is trying to make to federal research funding dollars. bizjournals.com/boston/news/20…
“You have an attorney general who will do everything in her power…to protect the rule of law….without fear.” Thank you @MassAGO Andrea Joy Campbell for your unwavering support of #HigherEducation and joining us at our annual meeting @bentleyu
We’re with the @BosBizJournal for The Business of Higher Ed, with panelists from @QuestromDean, @TuftsUniversity, @SeeRCC and AICUM CEO @rob_mccarron. #BBJhighered
Great meeting and conversation with Senate President Karen E. Spilka and the presidents from @EmmanuelCollege @smithcollege @mghihp @SpfldCollege @UrbanCollegeBOS and AICUM CEO @rob_mccarron about the alarming state of affairs in DC and the need for support from the state.
Thanks for joining us today @BUCommunity_
Thank you AG @AJCampbellMA for all your work and that of your office to combat the effects of legalized gambling on the #mentalhealth of our college students. Echoing the words of AICUM CEO @rob_mccarron, thank you for your leadership and support.
Today marks our fifth state-wide convening on the topic of #campusmentalhealth, and we are excited to welcome Atty. Gen. @AJCampbellMA as we tackle the impact of legalized gambling on college campuses.
Congratulations to the @goannamaria community!
The Anna Maria College Board of Trustees unanimously appointed Dr. Sean J. Ryan as the College’s 12th president, effective July 1, 2025. He joins from Bellarmine University, where he serves as Senior VP. Read more: annamaria.edu/presidential-s…. Welcome, Dr. Ryan!
Spring is in the air in WDC as we attend the @NAICUtweets annual meeting and advocacy day. Thank you @SenMarkey @RepMcGovern and @RepRichardNeal for your commitment to the mission of #privatehighered in the Commonwealth.
It’s a sign of the times when an earthquake in New England gets lost in a blizzard of activity from WDC. AICUM CEO @rob_mccarron on the Commonwealth's collective gasp at the federal funding freeze and looking ahead. The Hub of Higher Ed: January 2025 conta.cc/4gqA0YK
These grants are welcome news for the thousands of MA students studying for a career in behavioral health at a private college/university. Our sector plays a key role in meeting the demands of our workforce; supporting all students is crucial to keeping the talent pipeline robust
Mental health is health. Massachusetts needs a diverse, qualified behavioral health workforce to meet the needs of residents across our state. We're investing over $12 million in students working toward careers treating mental health and substance use disorders.
We're at @ragoninstitute - a partnership between @Harvard, @MIT and @MassGenBrigham - for the ceremonial signing of the #MassLeadsAct by @MassGovernor Maura Healey and @MassEOED Secretary Yvonne Hao.
#ICYMI The private higher ed sector in Massachusetts continues to drive the economy, creating jobs along the way #economicimpact
Other sectors have slowed the pace of building. But universities continue to break ground. Here’s a quick refresher in Campus Construction 101. bizjournals.com/boston/news/20…
The global reach of @Northeastern is on display here in #Toronto at the @bostonchamber #citytocityBos program as we talk about attracting and retaining talent.
It’s great to be in #Toronto with @MassLtGov Kim Driscoll, UnderSec. of Econ. Strategies Sarah Stanton and members from Canada’s #economicdevelopment team and on the @bostonchamber #citytocityBos program.
