Our guest Andrés Acebo, Interim President of New Jersey City University shares how he and the NJCU community have forged a new mission and vision for what he calls a “Student Ready” college.
President Acebo stresses the importance of shared governance, while insisting on ways to meet the needs of students and communities served. NJCU is federally recognized as a minority serving institution (MSI). Andy explains how his professional and personal missions are reflected back in the experiences and successes of the NJCU student body.
He shares his insights on educational effectiveness and equity and the recent Supreme Court ruling, banning race-based admissions for institutions of higher education (IHEs).
