ACCESS AND REPRESENTATION• Women are currently the majority of graduates
• Projected to be the majority of college-educated workers in the United States in 2019
• Women and People of Color lag in leadership roles currently• Future state will significantly change this paradigm
• Privileged people must be anti-racist

TECHNOLOGY• Highly integrated systems to support all aspects of the
learning experience
• Those same systems are leveraged by administrators to record and document learners’ participation and achievents
• Will support alumni matching, faculty research, and career placement
