“We talk a lot about grit in higher education. Grit only goes so far if you’ve never experienced success and grit only goes so far if you have no idea what to do next. What this partnership does is it teaches them what to do next. It gives them confidence.”

In this interview, Dr. Rob Reynolds talks with Dr. Karen Ferguson, Provost and VP of Enrollment at Salem University, about the challenges and opportunities in serving non-traditional and rural students.  Dr. Ferguson discusses her own educational journey as a non-traditional student, and what access to education really means.
