🎓Institutions must go beyond claiming to be student-centered and address the real challenges students face, such as bureaucracy and lack of flexibility.
🌍COVID-19 has exposed disparities in students' communities and the need for institutions to provide holistic supports like access to technology and food security.
🔑Student-centric institutions prioritize understanding and leveraging the assets students bring to the table, rather than focusing solely on deficits.
🖥Remote learning should not distance institutions from students and their communities; it should be an opportunity to double down on support and community engagement.
🌟Being student-centric requires empathy, resilience, and visionary leadership to rethink and innovate higher education.
