We are extremely pleased to announce that one of our students at The Knowledge Co-Operative from Our Lady of Lourdes Academy has been admitted to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, the University of Maryland, the University of Miami and the University of Michigan. Needless to say, this aspiring engineer (and outstanding young lady) has a LOT of fantastic choices. #collegeprep #collegeplanning #collegeadmissions #CollegeAdvice #collegeadvising #collegeadmissionshelp #testprep #testpreparation #satprep #satpreparation #ACTprep #actpreparation

Mentorship "Is a Shame": Today, I learned about a deeply concerning decision at my alma mater, the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez (UPRM). A significant proposal aimed at empowering low-income engineering students, spearheaded by one of our esteemed professors, was not submitted for NSF funding due to administrative decisions. This proposal, part of the PEARLS project, sought to bring an additional $2M for research and implementation of strategies to enhance success among these students. It's disheartening to see such a crucial initiative, especially one promising scholarships, assistantships, and academic support, being overlooked. This is particularly poignant in light of the escalating costs of education and the decreasing affordability for low-income students at UPRM. In times like these, it's vital to remember the core values of education and its role in leveling the playing field for all. Our commitment should be towards creating opportunities and fostering an environment where every student can succeed, irrespective of their economic background. I stand in solidarity with the faculty and students at UPRM who are fighting for educational equity. Let's raise awareness and advocate for prioritizing the needs of our most vulnerable students. Their success is not just their own – it uplifts our entire community. #EducationalEquity #UPRM #PEARLSProject

Studying at DCSAAD is highly stimulating. Students get the opportunity to learn from both national and international scenarios. #architectureschool #architectureanddesign #architectstudents #designschool #barch #campuslife #dcschoolofarchitectureanddesign #dcsmatinstitution #DCSMAT

The persistent gap between the skills companies need, and the skills workers have, has a solution; it starts with K-12 Career and Technical Education (CTE). ATSR Planners / Architects / Engineers Partner and Executive Officer Paul Erickson explores how flexible school CTE programs respond to the need for skilled workers in this article from American School and University magazine. https://lnkd.in/grp_DQsw One of our long-time partners, Minnetonka Public Schools is utilizing their ATSR-designed CTE space for innovative ways to teach students these future-ready skills. Check out the short video below on the ice houses being built by students. https://lnkd.in/gtd3zdGE

Making world-class facilities. Say hello to the Wave. This stunning curved building at the The University of Sheffield inspires world-class teaching, learning and research. At BAM, we think beyond the build and focus on the bigger impact. ?? Read case study: https://orlo.uk/MLdd8 #MakingPossible

We are pleased to announce that one of our outstanding young ladies from Our Lady of Lourdes Academy at The Knowledge Co-Operative has, after weighing options that included FULL scholarships to UF, Ohio State, Purdue and Illinois, has chosen to accept the Victors Award and Engineering Endowed Scholarship at the University of Michigan. #GoBlue #testprep #TestPreparation #satprep #satpreparation #ACTPrep #actpreparation #collegeadmissions #collegeadvising #collegeprep #collegeplanning #CollegePreparation #collegeadmissions #collegeadvising #collegeadvisor #collegeadvice

"Most of the institutions in the fledgling consortium, striving to redesign their way to a more secure future, would do so by reducing the number of academic credits they require from the typical 120 to as low as 90." ~I'm not sure that is solving anything, frankly. Wrong conversation. Ostensibly, the same issues exist, just in a shorter format: Degree programs predicated on outdated curricula; calendar-based format; Carnegie seat time metrics; outdated grade schema; horrible credit articulation from community colleges, and on and on. Lopping off one year may save a little money, but since most students now take 6 years (and roughly less than 70% finish), I'm not sure the cost savings really amount to much. If they are serious they should be looking at CBL.

?? It was a great session at #AACC104 by our partners at the University of Arkansas - Pulaski Technical College! Chancellor Summer DeProw, Ph.D., had a packed house for the session "Sustaining a Successful Initiative: Moving Beyond the Shiny."
