Washington Post Live: U.S. Higher Education: Rethinking the Possibilities with Dr. Anne Kress, JB Milikin & Leslie Fenwick

America is reexamining the role of higher education today. Changes in technology have profoundly altered the list of skills now most valued by prospective employers, causing traditional four-year universities and community colleges to recalibrate curriculums to address the evolving workforce.

The global pandemic has also exacerbated a widening inequality with many lower-income students not able to continue their education after high school. Washington Post Live will focus on these issues with a couple of America’s experts on the evolving role of higher education. Join the conversation, Thursday, March 25 at noon.

Dr. Anne M. Kress, alongside Dr. Leslie Fenwick, Dean Emeritus of the Howard University School of Education, James B. Millikin, chancellor of The University of Texas System and André Dua is a senior partner at McKinsey & Company will discuss national solutions. The event will be moderated by Elise Labott, Adjunct Professor, American University and Foreign Policy columnist.
