Date
1-28-2021
Description
In spring 2020, we sat down with leaders at area universities just as they were transitioning their campuses to virtual operations and making difficult decisions at every turn. Nine months later, we revisited the topic to see how educational institutions are continuing to adapt, evolve and innovate to meet the needs of students, faculty and staff. What lessons have been learned - and what are the implications for higher education and workforce development going forward?
