It's YOUR time to #EdUp with Dr. Lisa Vollendorf, President of Empire State University (SUNY), & Dr. Catherine M. Wehlburg, President, Athens State University
In this episode, sponsored by the Lumina Foundation, & recorded Live from the 2026 ASU+GSV Summit
YOUR host is Dr. Joe Sallustio
- How do 2 institutions built to serve adult learners prove that flipping the switch to go online doesn't work without an ethos of serving all learners not just some?
- Why have 646 associate degrees been awarded to students who stopped out but qualified when they never knew they earned a credential?
- What makes incremental change not enough when higher ed hasn't had the courage to say we are failing on debt, transferability & student centered metrics?
