  • The College President Who Isn’t Afraid of Speaking Up

    The College President Who Isn’t Afraid of Speaking Up
    Apr 14 2026

    These days colleges are under fire from the Trump administration and critics on multiple fronts. Dartmouth College’s president, Sian Beilock, is one of the few Ivy League presidents not getting hauled before Congress, though her approach has plenty of detractors. Jeff and Michael talked with Beilock about the purpose of college, and how to lead in this polarized and uncertain time. This episode is made with support from Ascendium Education Group.

  • The Busts in Buildings, AI, and College Presidencies

    The Busts in Buildings, AI, and College Presidencies
    Apr 7 2026
    As winter thaws and spring arrives, Jeff and Michael reflect on six big issues facing higher education. First up, why they think the campus building boom is over — and what comes next. They also discuss how AI is changing both higher ed and the world of work; what recent scandals involving college presidents mean for the sustainability of that job; and why the finances of college sports just don’t add up.
