A major aspect of Clayton State University’s mission is social mobility. Tied to the mission is the university’s annual Social Mobility Summit. The event will be held on Wednesday, June 25. Its lineup includes panels, workshops, and discussions exploring key factors influencing social mobility—and how higher education can be a powerful driver of change. Rose talks with Dr. Mahnaz Charania, the chief transformation officer at The New Teacher Project, and Jada Mitchell, the executive director of student success at Clayton State University about the event and the importance of ensuring all students have social capital, strong networks and relationships.

 

Plus, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution has a new opinion editor. David Plazas talks with Rose about his new role, which includes serving as an editorial board member and helping to expand the publication’s opinion content and community engagement initiatives.
