About this listen

This conversation details a comprehensive framework for modernizing higher education by deeply embedding workforce readiness into the core academic experience. Rather than treating career services as an isolated department, the proposed model integrates professional competencies and experiential learning directly into the curriculum. They argue that this alignment enhances student retention and economic mobility while maintaining the intellectual rigor of a traditional degree. Special emphasis is placed on equity-centered design, ensuring that low-income and underrepresented students gain access to the social capital and paid opportunities necessary for career success. Ultimately, they advocate for collaborative leadership and the use of labor market data to create sustainable, responsive institutions that benefit both graduates and regional economies.
