This Week In College Viability (TWICV) Special Guest: Greg Pillar

Greg Pillar answers these questions on this special podcast episode of 'This Week in College Viability'.

1. "Enrollment teams are obviously focused on hitting the numbers, often relying on GPA and test scores. In your experience, why are those metrics failing to predict a student’s actual readiness for the modern college environment?"

2. "If Enrollment focuses on 'getting them in' and Academics focuses on 'teaching them,' who is responsible for the transition? Where are students falling through the cracks during that hand-off?"

3. "Instructional capacity is often overlooked in the viability conversation. Are we asking faculty to do the impossible by putting modern learners into outdated academic infrastructures?"

4. "Headlines about program cuts are usually framed as 'Faculty vs. Administration.' What is the nuance that the media almost always misses

5. "If a college accepts a student, they are making a promise of viability. Do schools have a moral obligation to stop enrolling students they are not structurally prepared to graduate?"

6. What is the 'tuition mirage'?

7. There was a west coast faculty post today about AI becoming a better teacher than teachers. That may or may not happen. Talk us through a scenario what that does happen in higher education.
