Higher Ed ReWired California State University

College campuses are part of their larger communities, which positions them to be leaders during times of crisis. The border of the college facilities does not isolate itself from what is taking place beyond the gates into the surrounding community. In fact, Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans (2005), The Camp Fire in Chico, California (2018) and COVID 19 (2020) are historical catastrophes affecting the university in unprecedented ways and they have stepped up to during these critical moments.
The resilience of the faculty, staff and students at California State University, Monterey Bay during COVID 19 is evidence to how faculty and students leaned into this extremely traumatic event to become a teachable moment.

Whereas there is ample evidence of persistent equity gaps across the education pipeline, successfully closing the gap has thus far eluded higher education leaders and policy makers. What do we know about what works, what are emerging best practices, and why are equity gaps so stubborn?
Higher Ed Rewired spoke with postsecondary education researchers, Dr. Frank Harris III and Dr. Eric Felix of San Diego State University Community College Equity Assessment Lab, to discuss their research and recommendations on what is required to  close equity gaps. We also dive into the work at Pasadena City College that has driven institutional change by looking beyond diversity and rethinking inclusion for their 27,000 students. 

As a thought-provoking conclusion to season one, Higher Ed Rewired highlights a conversation on the future of higher education between three national higher education innovators and experts. Doug Lederman, editor and co-founder of Inside Higher Ed, Michelle Weise, senior vice president of Workforce Strategies and Chief Innovation Officer for  Strada Education, and Alexandra Bernadotte, founder and chief executive officer of Beyond 12 tackle big questions like:  How is higher education keeping up with our changing society? How can we change the way we support students to and through college? What is the relationship between higher education and the workforce? Where does higher education go from here?  
Listen in on this conversation on the changing landscape of higher education and reflections on what must happen to ensure student success in the future of our colleges and universities.

Using virtual reality (VR), CSU Channel Island nursing students learn beyond the boundaries of the traditional classroom. Dr. Jaime Hannans, California State University Channel Islands, shares how students are able to rehearse and get feedback on their helping skills through VR simulations, and develop empathy through connecting with their virtual patients.  San Diego State University’s Virtual Immersive Teaching and Learning (VITaL) promotes experimentation with curriculum design in unexpected majors by applying the scholarship of teaching and learning to these emerging technological tools.
