The college of the future must adapt to a radically changing higher-education landscape. What can colleges do to embrace new partnerships and fresh approaches, put students at the center, and truly deliver upon the value of a college degree?
Join The Chronicle’s journalists as they interview leading thinkers and college leaders about the ideas that will reshape institutions.
You will learn:
Day 1 - Tuesday, August 29
12:30 - 3:00 pm ET
The Students of the Future
It’s a common critique that American higher education was not created with today’s students in mind — and that’s a perception that’s likely to become even more widespread as demographics shift and student expectations change. Day 1 will explore how colleges prepare for a future in which they are truly student centered.
VIRTUAL CONFERENCE • AUG 29 - 31, 2023
What the students of tomorrow expect of institutions
How technologies like artificial intelligence will reshape the educational experience
How college and faculty leaders can improve the public perception of higher ed
Day 2 - Wednesday, August 30
12:30 - 3:00 pm ET
A Social Contract for the Future
Today, as colleges face vocal — and frequently, more virulent — critics, how can higher ed better defend and elevate the part it plays in American society? Day 2 will discuss how that role must evolve in a world where the only certainty seems to be uncertainty.
Day 3 - THURSDAY, August 31
12:30 - 3:00 pm ET
Leadership for the Future
The college of the future can not be an ivory tower or closed academic community. It’ll be highly interconnected, technology driven, and collaborative. Day 3 will focus on how campus leaders — and those who aspire to become leaders — can adapt their thinking for this new environment.
