Event Details

Join us for an urgent and insightful conversation as we take a deep dive into the state of higher education 100 days into the Trump administration. In this pivotal moment, a distinguished panel of scholars and policy experts will analyze the early effects of federal and state policies on key issues like student access and affordability. We’ll also explore the alarming implications of budget cuts to the Department of Education, the dismantling of federal data systems, and the erosion of DEI initiatives on campuses nationwide.

As public perceptions of higher education continue to shift, our panelists will discuss what lies ahead for institutions, policymakers, and researchers facing an increasingly complex and challenging landscape.

Panelists:

  • Dominique Baker, Associate Professor, University of Delaware
  • Diane Cheng, Vice President of Research and Policy, IHEP
  • Robert Kelchen, Professor, University of Tennessee, Knoxville
  • Kyle Southern, Associate Vice President, Higher Education Quality, TICAS
Moderator: Jackie Pedota, Postdoctoral Associate, University of Texas at Austin
