YOUR host is Dr. Joe Sallustio
- How does a president 13 years in at the same 800 student institution take a 90 day sabbatical to enter his 3rd presidency without switching schools?
- Why does rural remote & small not mean less than when you're changing the trajectory of first gen Pell eligible students & their entire families?
- What makes partnership with schools similar to you the path to optimize enrollment & cost structure when adding graduate programs makes no sense for a town of 9,000?
