Series: Transformative Conversations

Description: This series explores how Higher Education is both impacted by and responding to these challenges focusing on college teaching, learning, student success, and all aspects of higher education. We will include frank conversations about equity, and the current climate in higher education. Through this forum, we will engage with colleagues across the country as we dissect issues in higher education in real-time.

Hosted by Dr. Monica Flippin Wynn, Assistant Vice President at the John N. Gardner Institute for Excellence in Undergraduate Education. Prior to joining the Institute staff in October 2019, Monica was Associate Professor and Director of Undergraduate and Interim Director of Graduate Communication programs at Lindenwood University and she served as Associate Professor of Mass Communications at Jackson State University.

Dr. Flippin Wynn earned her PhD in Communications from the University of Oklahoma in Norman, Oklahoma, a Master of Science from the University of Wisconsin- Whitewater, and her undergraduate degree from Southern University.
