We’re living in a moment where the ground is shifting daily—from policy changes and legal battles to funding decisions and challenges to the very foundations of our work to promote equity and access. The news isn’t just headlines; it has real consequences for students, educators, and institutions.

That’s why, starting next week, Student Affairs Now is bringing you a weekly, rapid-response conversation to break down the latest developments in higher education. Each Friday morning, we’ll release a brief but essential discussion featuring two experts - scholars and thought leaders - who are paying attention to the shifting landscape of higher ed. Together, we’ll discuss:

What’s happening right now? The critical issues making waves this week.

Why does it matter? The implications for students, faculty, staff, and institutions.

What can we do? How student affairs educators and higher education administrator can respond, advocate, and take action within their spheres of influence.

In a time when funding, equity initiatives, academic freedom, and institutional policies are in flux, staying informed isn’t enough. We need context. We need perspective. And we need to talk about how to move forward.

So, whether you’re a campus administrator, faculty member, student affairs educator, or just someone who cares deeply about the future of higher ed, we hope you’ll tune in.

Our first episode drops next Friday, March 7—stay tuned, and we’ll see you then!
