 A new guidebook from Achieving the Dream and the Advising Success Network offers ideas and tools to help colleges and universities understand their students better. More While the racial and ethnic makeup of engineering students and professionals has shifted over the last 10 years, progress toward equity has been slow for black and Latinx engineers. In fact, at the current pace of progress, it will take 256 more years to achieve equity for black professionals in engineering if the rate of completion remains the same. That’s one of the findings of a study released this week focused on diversity in engineering, both in education and in the workplace.MoreInvestments in tech infrastructure as well as faculty training are essential to navigate the equity implications of higher education's new normal.More

By moving their existing Banner ERP system to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, the university was able to save at least 25 percent on infrastructure costs. Rather than just pocket the savings, Gonzaga IT used that budget on improvements to security, disaster recovery and test/dev. Date: June 22, 2021
