In this episode of dotEDU Live, Jon Fansmith and Sarah Spreitzer are joined by a full team of ACE experts—Steven Bloom, Peter McDonough, and Emmanual Guillory—to take a deeper look at what the post-election landscape looks like for higher education policy.

This episode covers key developments, including Linda McMahon's nomination as Secretary of Education, shifts in congressional leadership, and the Trump administration's stance on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). The discussion also explores upcoming regulatory challenges and what to expect during the administration's first 100 days.
