We had an engaging discussion yesterday about re-engaging those who began college but didn't finish. In @NJHigherEd its the Some College, No Degree initiative. Proud to partner with ReUp Education on this effort that has re-enrolled over 6300 students in just over a year.
SHEEO@SHEEOed

Today begins our 69th Annual Meeting, where SHEEOs are engaging in timely and important discussions. Kicking us off this afternoon is a panel about statewide approaches to re-engage the some college, no degree population.

College has immense value for all. But it is perhaps most critical to those within the margins, for whom a degree can make all the difference. Today @SecBBridges testified before the state legislature to share how we will keep driving investments forward for students.

Low-income, minority, and immigrant communities bear the brunt of environmental harm, and we can't ignore that reality. In New Jersey under @GovMurphy’s leadership, we're working to level the playing field and ensure equity for all.

The plenary highlighted the importance of leading and ending w/ data. @SecBBridges highlights how NJ utilized data to advocate for and monitor the Uwill partnership- over 30,000 sessions and 61% of users had never had a counseling session prior.
