This article represents the second installment in our "Office Hours" series, a new video column on Education Dive: Higher Ed which we feature executives from around the country in short interviews on topics of national relevance. Revisit our inaugural post with California Polytechnic State University President Jeffrey Armstrong here.
In our first #EdDiveOnTheRoad trip, Education Dive editors traveled to New York City and spoke with Borough of Manhattan Community College Provost Karrin E. Wilks, who has been in the industry for 25 years specializing in college readiness, developmental education, and retention, especially for high-risk students.
In this second installment of our "Office Hours" series, she shares her expertise on how higher education institutions can better meet the needs of underserved students, as well as the role of community colleges in the changing industry landscape.
