RSS Feed RSS Feed It's YOUR time to #EdUp with Susan R. Snelick, President, Northern Pennsylvania Regional College
In this episode, President Series #439, powered by Ellucian, & sponsored by the 2026 InsightsEDU Conference in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, February 17-19,
YOUR host is Dr. Joe Sallustio
- How does Pennsylvania's only rural regional college serve 10 counties without a single campus based facility & why is this model critical for eliminating education deserts across northern Pennsylvania?
- What happens when a public institution founded in 2017 operates independently from community college standards & how does this freedom enable innovation that traditional systems cannot replicate?
- Why are colleges, campuses, tech centers & business schools closing their doors in rural regions & what infrastructure costs are literally driving institutions out of business while education deserts expand?
Extended Conversation for EdUp Premium Members:
- How can institutions deliver affordable accessible education through Teams meetings, remote learning & asynchronous formats while maintaining workforce development offerings that require in person training?
- What makes Workforce Pell simultaneously promising for equity & access yet nearly impossible to implement when federal restrictions clash with institutional business models & existing workforce training systems?
- What does the future demand when high school graduates are declining enrollment across 2 year & 4 year institutions & how must higher ed collectively rethink the value proposition to remain competitive in a global environment?
