In response to an increasingly complicated environment for higher education, the American Council on Education (ACE) created its Office on National Engagement in the fall of 2023 to influence public debates on the role and value of postsecondary education. To further this work, the office launched the Advancing Higher Education in Our States series to inform and strengthen critical engagements between higher education and its state governments, communities, and residents. Each webinar will bring together a panel of experts to explore ways that higher education institutions contribute in their communities and why fostering local connections is critical to the future of postsecondary education.
The second webinar in the series—held in partnership with the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB)—will bring together business leaders and higher education experts. The panel will discuss the state of business education today as well as how business schools ensure access and high-quality academic offerings in a dynamic, state-level policy environment.
