Dive Brief: The University of Missouri’s Student Affairs will cut off five student affinity organizations from funding beginning in July, according to the public flagship and the groups. Mizzou said in a statement that it can “no longer allocate funding or space based on protected demographic characteristics,” citing guidance from the U.S. Department of Justice. Instead of receiving designated funds, the affected organizations would have to apply next year to a resource pool shared by over 600 campus groups. The student groups…

A recent meta-analysis of 21 studies found that inquiry-based learning has a significant positive effect on student outcomes (Harleni et al., 2024). A separate meta-analysis focused on science education found the impact on critical thinking is even larger — with an effect size more than twice that of general outcomes (Arifin & Sukarmin, 2025). So, we know we need to do this, however, for us busy K-8 teachers juggling standards, testing, and too-short class periods, “inquiry-based” can feel like code for “one more thing I don’t have time for.”In this episode, Terra Tarango, Chief Education Officer at Van Andel Institute…

Dive Brief: A federal judge on Friday temporarily blocked the U.S. Department of Education from enforcing a deadline for public colleges in 17 states to submit admissions data broken down by race and sex. The same court previously delayed the deadline twice. U.S. District Court Judge F. Dennis Saylor concluded that the data collection was generally within the scope of the department’s legal authority, but the rushed timeline likely violated the Administrative Procedure Act, which regulates federal agencies’ rulemaking processes. The Association of American Universities and the Association of Independent Colleges and Universities in Massachusetts have also asked to join…

A federal judge on Friday blocked in 17 states the Trump administration’s demand that public colleges and universities submit detailed race- and gender-related admissions data stretching back seven years. The ruling, by U.S. District Court judge Dennis Saylor IV of Boston, was in response to a March 6 lawsuit by the attorneys general from the group of Democratic-led states. Their lawsuit argued that forcing colleges and universities to complete the new Admissions and Consumer Transparency Supplement survey was unlawful, “arbitrary and capricious” and exceeded the authority of the agency that approved it, the Office of Management and Budget. The administration said…

District officials unveiled a plan last week to hire 23 students to share positive messages about their schools in the Detroit Public Schools Community District. The high schoolers will create and share social media content aimed at winning over prospective students and parents, as well as engaging their peers. The initiative is one of several new ideas the district is considering to reverse a 20-year…

AI Reshaping Corporate Learning: When Training Happens Most Learning and Development (L&D) teams know the feeling. A training program launches on schedule. Completion rates look solid. The LMS dashboard is green. And then—nothing changes on the floor, in the calls, or in the metrics that actually matter. This isn’t a resources problem. Organizations worldwide spend an estimated $400 billion annually on employee training. Yet research from the Learning and Development community consistently shows that learners forget up to 70% of new information within 24 hours without reinforcement. The issue isn’t investment. It’s design. For years, corporate learning has operated on…

Last week, we joined the Digital Promise League of Innovative Schools for their latest convening right here in our backyard. The contrast was not lost on us as we were sitting just a few miles from the glass towers where engineers are busy building the software that is changing the way we work and learn. But if you walked into that room of superintendents and district teams, you wouldn’t have heard much talk about the latest disruptive software. There was no rush to find the next shiny device. Instead, there was a much deeper, more urgent conversation happening. These leaders…

In some contexts, spring rush might refer to fraternities and sororities. Here, it refers to the ways calendars fill for April and early May. As the last couple of months of the academic year—summer is its own thing—these are when the “annual” deadlines tend to converge. This is awards season, events season, annual advisory board meeting season, faculty candidate interview season and conference season, all at the same time. This is also when student academic issues—dishonesty and/or possibility of failure—come to the surface. I don’t mean that as a complaint, exactly, though a slightly more even pace across the year…
