We’re one semester into the 2020-2021 academic year. This hour, how are faculty at our ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø colleges and universities holding up? 

Coming up, we'll talk about faculty burnout, the impending end of tenure, and what universities will invest in, in the future. 

And later, the ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø State Colleges and Universities system is in the process of merging all 12 of our state community colleges. We learn about what this means for students and faculty.

Are you teaching or attending college here in ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø? We want to hear from you! What do you miss about being in the classroom?
