@jsolly @KrisOlds And any institution that can perform well on that measure has incentives to invest in maintaining the (able to stay enrolled continuously with a full-time load) student body that will allow them to continue to perform well on that measure, automatically deprioritizing programs that would help more of #TodaysStudents, who increasingly would benefit from more flexible, part-time, and DE-focused program pathways.

#RealCollege is the experience of #TodaysStudents - the majority

Community colleges and broad access public universities *are* real colleges and where most people attend college.

Nearly all college students work and/or care for family. 1 in 5 has a #kid. Many are over 25 and *all* are #adults and #humans first.

Please join me in busting stereotypes & reshaping public perception of #education beyond high school - use the #RealCollege hashtag to share and educate.
