This basically says nothing, but it says something (anything!) official! The intentional chaos caused this morning is unsurprising and disappointing.

Is a solutions mindset too much to ask for from this administration?

💯 The character development is ASTOUNDING!

I just checked out for 9 days. No emails. No calls. I went 100% dark. London, you were a Thanksgiving holiday dream come true 🇬🇧 I returned energized and grateful for the gift of uninterrupted time exploring centuries old cities with my little girls and family. Normalize time away.

The DOJ wants Google to sell its Chrome browser. Here are the winners and losers if that happens. Google's Chrome browser provides valuable distribution for the company's dominant search engine. Can it thrive without this?

Things sure are changing at warp speed these days - thrilling and intimidating all at once! #HEMarketing #DigitalMarketing #EnrollmentMarketing

Agree 100% here. We're asking young people to make these campuses their homes for some of the best years of their lives - Who wants to do that with stuffy and pretentious people/brands?

Thanks for sharing! Going to test a logo in the sign/sign-off.

Introducing my picks of today that could change come tomorrow.

#AMAHigherEd folx - Anyone have the slides from Creating Outstanding Student Videos: A How-To Guide? It's not linked in the app and I'd love to have it!

I posted here yesterday about the customer experience of #HigherEd and this article, only days after, is pure serendipity.

Fair! Thanks Ashley!

Awesome - thanks Seth!

#Email folks in #HigherEd: I've asked the content team to begin testing person-to-person style emails instead of anything that looks highly designed for drip campaigns.

Institutional logo up top? Only in the sig/sign-off? Something else entirely? @sethodell.bsky.social @ashleybudd.com

So interesting! I can see how the allure might be compromised if it seems/feels automatic, but it also sounds efficient! How is the student journey in terms of enrolling, registering, financial aid, etc? Would be fun to break it down to find efficiencies and really lean into being a top CX.

5/5 It's time to reimagine the entire student journey through the lens of immediate gratification. Not because it's easier, but because it removes artificial barriers to learning. The future of Higher Ed belongs to the fast AND the rigorous.

4/5 The winners in Higher Ed won't just be those with the best programs. They'll be institutions that deliver both academic excellence AND seamless digital experiences. Quality AND speed. Excellence AND accessibility.

3/5 Here's the reality check: These students have never known a world without instant gratification. When every other service in their life operates at the speed of now, our traditional processes feel like relics.

2/5 The data is clear: 43% surge in under-22 online enrollment between 2019-2022. This isn't just pandemic fallout - it's Gen Alpha voting with their clicks. They want education that moves at the speed of their lives.

Fresh off the #AMAConference and can't stop thinking about instant gratification and #HEenrollment

1/5 Netflix streams instantly & DoorDash delivers in minutes, so why do we expect #GenAlpha to wait weeks for admission decisions? HEd's "we'll get back to you" approach is becoming obsolete. Fast.
