Quotes from Autumn
“I’m proud to partner with colleges and universities and see the excellent work being done to educate and prepare the next generation of leaders, influencers, and doers of our communities. As an industry, we are at a pivotal time, in which higher education must continue to adapt to the changing landscape of the market. Student learning behaviors and donor engagement tell us that we need to be nimble and personalized in all our activities because that is what we have all become accustomed to in our everyday life. If you aren’t changing, you are falling behind and my goal as your partner is to challenge the norm.”
