"When we focus on the so-called “enrollment cliff,” and the “traditional” definition of college-aged student... we miss the diversity of learners." Adult learners play an important part in enrollment planning for higher ed institutions. Does your institution have the right structures and processes in place to support this type of learner? If not, we can help!

If you are a member of NASPA - Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education, join the Adult Learner/Students with Children Knowledge Community! The NASPA-ALSC meets monthly for insightful discussions and networking. #ProfessionalDevelopment

Have you heard the good news? College education in Michigan is getting more affordable! The net price of attending a public university has decreased as a share of household income over the past 15 years. Transformational investments from #MiLeg — like Michigan Reconnect, Michigan Achievement Scholarship and Community College Guarantee — are making the difference. These programs reflect a commitment to our state’s talent pipeline, workforce and economy that will pay dividends. Thank you for the great insights, Daniel J. Hurley. Read more in his recent op-ed:
