About this Event
College affordability remains a critical issue for Georgia students and families. That's why the Georgia Partnership for Excellence in Education and the newly-formed coalition, Georgians for College Affordability, are hosting a Critical Issues Forum entitled, “A Formula for the Future: The Case for Ensuring Affordable Postsecondary Education." Join us as we examine the current structure of funding for Georgia's colleges and universities and explore the challenges students face in paying for higher education and discuss the broader implications for our state's economy and future workforce. We will also dive into potential solutions, including policy changes, funding reform, and innovative models aimed at reducing financial barriers for Georgia students.
Featured speakers include:
Justin Draeger, Senior Vice President, Strada Education Foundation.
Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum, President Emerita, Spelman College
Dr. Tim Renick, Executive Director, National Institute for Student Success
We will also have with us representatives from the University System of Georgia, the Technical College System of Georgia, and the Georgia Student Finance Commission.
Registration and networking begin at 9:30 a.m. The program will start promptly at 10 a.m.
