Here's our statement on the results of the 2024 presidential election:

Increasingly, in the near future, it will take more than a HS diploma to compete for a good, family-sustaining job, a @GeorgetownCEW #FutureOfGoodJobs report finds. That may not mean a college degree, @RamonaWritesLA reports here: bit.ly/4dLga9J - though one would help.

@AmericanAir flight 1569 on 8/15 was a disaster all the way around thanks to thunderstorms and then a broken toilet that delayed us another 2 hours (5 hour delay total) BUT flight attendant Matt in first class was AMAZING! He handled everything with kindness and sense of humor.

This just in: The percentage of working-age adults with post-HS educational attainment is up again, according to @LuminaFound. See how far we’ve come in 15 years, and how far we still have to go: bit.ly/49fQVKn @CourtLB @LuminaFound @uscensusbureau @LauraAka5

20 minutes until we go live with #strongernation. It’s not too late to join me, @ACEducation President Ted Mitchell and @CCCSChancellor Joe García. eventcreate.com/e/lumina-found…

As I’m going through my kids’ old stuff I am realizing this may be why the tooth fairy who came to our house never won Mother of the Year.

There are six teams ranked in the latest AP Top 25 for men's basketball AND football. - JMU - Arizona - Alabama - Tennessee - Texas - North Carolina

#Highered must become more agile in understanding where students are, right now, in their life. Truly serving students means responding with flexible programs to address how life so often happens in educationally inconvenient ways. That’s agile. forbes.com/sites/jamiemer…
