Two Years of Changes: What Should We Keep?

Session Type: Invited Speaker Session

Abstract

Over the past two years, higher education institutions have experienced unprecedented changes – yet the narrative continues to focus on returning to the way things were. Inequities have been highlighted but not fully addressed. This panel seeks to interrogate two issues: 1) whether we should return to the way things were or if we should keep some of the changes that occurred over the past two years and 2) how can institutions address the inequities within higher education.
