What are the States’ Higher Education Policy Priorities for 2019?

Wednesday, February 27, 2019 9:30:00 AM PST - 10:30:00 AM PST

After a midterm election that included gubernatorial contests in 39 states and territories and over 80 percent of legislative seats on the ballot, a new class of lawmakers has taken office in states and territories this year. This has led to a host of policy proposals to address challenges and opportunities in higher education. This webinar, co-presented by the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) and the National Governors Association (NGA), will review the results of the 2018 midterm elections and proposals from the campaign trail related to higher education, as well as higher education policy ideas included in key gubernatorial speeches and documents. The hour-long webinar will also include higher education state policy trends thus far in 2019, including efforts to address college affordability, governance, and student safety.
