Description
Universities are at the center of a political storm. From freezes on research funding to federal investigations and fines, academic institutions are navigating critical challenges and responding in a range of ways. At this special panel discussion, we’ll ask: How does a university articulate its values? How do we ensure that all students have the capacity to become productive citizens? And how might universities emerge from this intense scrutiny?
