Details

We look forward to seeing you in Philadelphia for important in-person networking and sharing the lessons we've learned over these past months.

This session will be an exploration of thought-provoking discussion points including:

• Institutions’ reputation and platform vs. the related risks associated with DE&I efforts (or lack thereof) on enrollment, retention, and keeping the institutional reputation in-tact
• Aptability/progressiveness of institutions and their ability to “change with the times”.
• Are institutions of higher education ready to embark on a DE&I business imperative and what are the financial implications of that in terms of student aid and enrollment demographics – are there any “unwritten rules”?
• What are the long-term financial implications of DE&I in higher education?
• mHow can we introduce more intentionality around retention such that business practices continue to evolve to serve future generations of students and ensure access, affordability, and success?
• How do institutions balance DE&I recruitment goals with competing institutional aid (budget) goals which are often on different cycles/calendars?
• How is DE&I playing a part in the overall culture of the higher education institution?
