A new study finds that the achievement gap between the rich and poor remains unchanged after 50 years. We need a system where socioeconomic status does not determine student success. gates.ly/2QwIbbW

Today’s Daily Cartoon, by Gabrielle Drolet. #NewYorkerCartoons nyer.cm/H1d9xro
The unlawful actions that took place yesterday in our nation’s capital are shocking, and an affront to the rule of law that upholds the liberty which we so greatly prize. We strongly condemn these events. My statement on behalf of @wgu: bit.ly/35lZAN4
(1/6) I’m encouraged to see a bipartisan #highered deal prioritizing student needs @wgu advocated for through my @EdLaborCmte testimony: - Simplifies #FAFSA✅ - Provides $7B to help close the #digitaldivide✅ - Increases emergency aid for students✅ - Expands #Pell availability✅
#WGUGrad Cherie Watkins joined the @USNavy at age 38, where she learned every small part is important b/c it's a part of something bigger. She's carried that with her from her service to her fight against #COVID19 as an NP & certified infection preventionist. #VeteransDay
WGU soon to be triple-grad Dion Brown served in the @usairforce for 6 yrs. During his time on duty, Dion learned about #leadership: "Good or bad leadership can & will change how an organization operates as well as the productivity & happiness of its members." #VeteransDay
WGU Course Instructor Stasi Betts served in the @USNavy for 8 years. Since coming to WGU, she’s taught students serving across the globe, and believes WGU’s flexibility and self-paced programs make it a great #education option for active duty students. #NavyBirthday
The imperative to reorganize higher education around a more flexible, student-centered, value-based model is going to be one of COVID-19’s brightest silver linings.
Our enrollment of students ages 18-24 increased by more than 10x from 2016 to 2020. “There’s a growing number… in that age group who really love that earn & learn model… #COVID19 just puts the exclamation point on it.” @marnibstein in @qz (sub. required) bit.ly/3gt7mHA
1/2 Thank you Chairwoman @RepSusanDavis & Ranking Member @RepSmucker for having me testify today before @EdLaborCmte to examine #COVID19’s impacts on #highered. We must address immediate needs, but also plan for the long-term future of student-centric, innovative higher ed.

1/2 Yesterday, @usedgov released 3-yr #studentloan default rate data for all Title IV-eligible institutions. I’m thrilled to announce that for the 6th year in a row, @wgu’s 3-yr cohort default rate is less than half of the nat’l. average. #studentdebt bit.ly/2lqqcsm
Breaking: As policymakers & academic leaders nationwide continue debating over how to address high student loan debt/default rates, #WGU keeps bucking the trend: For the 6th consecutive year, our 3-yr default rate is less than 1/2 the national average. bit.ly/2ltJWvi

New report from the @SkillsCoalition emphasizes the importance of industry-relevant nondegree credentials as part of state workforce strategies. Quality nondegree credentials enable individuals to #upskill & #reskill, helping them advance in their careers & change their lives.
Non-degree credentials represent a crucial opportunity for millions of U.S. workers to increase their earnings & economic opportunities. NSC's latest publication outlines how states can ensure their non-degree credentials benefit workers & businesses. bit.ly/2mm52vC
