Episode Two: Building Pathways: Student-Centered Education from K–12 to College

In this episode, the B. Donta Truss sits down with Kyle Smitley, Founder & Executive Director, Detroit Achievement Academy & Detroit Prep, for a conversation that bridges K–12 education and higher education—and the pathways that connect them. Kyle reflects on her leadership journey, from founding Detroit Achievement Academy to building Detroit Prep into a school community grounded in purpose and student-centered design. She shares what it means to truly center students in practice, and how her schools define success beyond traditional metrics like test scores—focusing instead on long-term growth, opportunity, and readiness. The conversation also explores the power of early exposure to higher education, particularly for students in urban communities. The episode highlights the role of meaningful partnerships between K–12 schools and higher education institutions, and how those collaborations can open doors and strengthen student pathways.

Episode One: From FAFSA to Enrollment: Rethinking Financial Aid and Access

In this first episode, the Vice President for Enrollment Development & College Futures sits down with Michelle Rhodes, Grand Valley’s Associate Vice President for Financial Aid, to unpack the rapidly shifting financial aid landscape and what it means for students, families, and institutions. Their conversation explores the real impact of recent FAFSA changes, how federal policy is shaping enrollment strategy, and why financial aid is no longer just a back-end process but a central part of how colleges communicate value and affordability.  From reframing college as a long-term investment to offering actionable advice on scholarships, budgeting, and reducing debt, this episode highlights what it takes to build trust, improve access, and support students in making informed choices about their future.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
