This year's NASPA Comference on Student Success in Higher Education served as a great opportunity to learn, grow, and engage. Being surrounded by over 1,700 change agents was impactful and invigorating as I prepare for the upcoming academic year. #SSHE24.

I had an amazing time earlier this week engaging fellow champions of postsecondary access at the 2023 NCAN Conference. It is imperative that we advocate for educational equity...our future depends on it! #collegeaccess #ncan2023

NASPA condemns SCOTUS decision on race-conscious admissions. More than ever, we must affirm that fostering an inclusive campus remains an integral part of the mission of higher ed, and is key to cultivating academic inquiry and advancing student success.

The 2023 iCAN Spartanburg Summer Institute is always a great opportunity for high school Citizen Scholars to gain a unique experience on a college campus while preparing for college entry. I had a great time engaging with this year’s group and looking to the upcoming school year.
