Aspen Ignites: Restoring Faith in Higher Education Institutions

It's back-to-school season! 🎒✏️The time of the year when students and families across the country participate in the annual tradition of last-minute supply shopping, adjusting schedules, and attending orientations.
However, what's changing is the public trust in higher education. From 2015 to 2019, trust in higher ed declined faster than in other institutions, including the presidency and Congress.
In this must-watch #AspenIgnites episode, Aspen Institute President Dan Porterfield and Miami-Dade College President Madeline Pumariega sit down with Caroline Preston, Managing Director of The Hechinger Report, to dig into this trend and explore how we can turn it around.
