In the final episode of this season, FutureU hosts Jeff Selingo and Michael B. Horn discuss what they’ve learned this past year, and talk about the fall and what to expect next academic year. They also answer interesting audience questions like “Will free community college essentially be the federal government’s lone effort to say it’s done something to reign in the cost of college?”
“I think the institutions that really thrived during this pandemic are those that, in the words of Sen. Michael Bennet or Joe Biden this spring, figured out how to walk and chew gum at the same time.. They focused both on the here and now, the pandemic, but also about higher education post pandemic and what it would look like,” Selingo said.
