I no longer want to be commended on my resiliency. I want to see the systems redesigned so that there’s not a need for me to be resilient.

Colleges survived w/o international students for one year. But how about two? Nearly 1,300 institutions are at "high risk," says Shorelight Education -- meaning they have at least 1/4 of international students from places where travelers prohibited from entering U.S. h/t Karin Fischer

I think all exams should be open book. It increases note taking skills that are actually used in life and the work place and it would decrease exam stress. It’s unfair to assume all students can retain mass amounts of info. Exams should be application based and not a memory test.

People need to stop getting useless business degrees and instead go to where the money is at, in philosophy

We are a university conducting research on perceived problems with post-secondary education. We’re not trying to sell anything, just researching new approaches to learning. If you are a parent of young adults (17-24) please take our short survey: forms.gle/FhiqaFJ1fQaFd6…
