Listen "This Week In College Viability (TWICV) for January 8, 2024"
Episode Synopsis
It’s a new year full of similar stories from 2023. I am not going to say 2024 will be exciting. That is trite. I will say that the college news and commentary I provide at TWICV will continue to try and earn your support for allowing me to be your informal fiduciary – going above and beyond the call to look after your best interests. You might think that doesn’t apply to college leaders, but it does. If I can be a part of changing the college discussion and perspective for students, faculty, staff, community leaders and others, college leaders won’t call me a fiduciary – that’s their job. They will have to react to market changes and the data comparisons I provide through the CV App Today’s stories include:'Egregious failure': Union Institute I ask yet again what are these accrediting agencies doing?
