There is, indeed, too much talent trapped in poverty. #CommunityColleges can help unleash that talent.

: Inspiring article from Durham Technical Community College & Durham Public Schools on students graduating with a high school diploma and an associate degree. The goal is to have 25% of students graduate with these credentials by 2029. T-ATP would love to take action to help these students learn and pursue cybersecurity! Link: https://shorturl.at/rwDM2

One of the sad parts of being an adjunct is when students ask you to take part in really cool events or clubs...and you just can't 😕 Not because you don't want to, but because the time/days/extra time on campus just doesn't work with responsibilities at multiple schools.

Hi everyone! I know there's a lot of new Mastodon accounts out there 👋 so here's another #Introduction post.

I'm an #ArchitecturalHistorian teaching the history of architecture and art at #CommunityColleges in the San Francisco Bay Area. I'm also very active in the Society of Architectural Historian (I know our members are on here somewhere 😉 ) and love writing about architecture when I have the chance.

Today I’m working on #housing for #homeless #college #students

The need is so large and the supply of opportunities so limited.

Did you know that most #CommunityColleges and many public #universities lack any dedicated housing for students?

No, “commuter students” don’t just “live at home” with their parents. That’s increasingly rare.

#Housing is #Education and #MentalHealth and #Parenting

The lack of #AffordableHousing is a key factor hindering #EducationalAttainment

I'm Al. I work with higher ed practitioners to support their efforts to improve student success & equity. I also blog, podcast, & provide free tools. I work primarily with community colleges & open access universities.

I authored a guide, Why Colleges Struggle to Implement Priorities & What To Do About It, and launched the Student Success Podcast. (Free content. No email required)

Here escaping Twitter. Teaching architectural history and art history at community colleges, and active in the Society of Architectural Historians (SAH).
