It's YOUR time to #EdUp with Dr. Sarah Coakley, Provost & Chief Academic Officer, Georgia Highlands College

In this episode, sponsored by EdUp Leadership, the HigherEd PodCon II happening July 16 & 17, & the 2026 AcOps Conference July 29-31 by Coursedog

YOUR cohost is Matt Foran, Founder & CEO, KnowMeQ

How does a state college with an access mission grow bachelor's degree enrollment 280% in 3 years from 600 students to 2,500 while 85% of graduates stay in the region?
Why did leadership start a scholarship from their own pockets for students who owed $250 or less when $85 might be what's keeping them from coming to school?
What makes every bachelor's program require an internship or capstone so students have a resume as well as a diploma the minute they walk across the stage?
