Listen to the episode

Dr. Nancy Gordon believes that higher education is a force for life long learning, change, and helping us improve who we are and where we’re going. It’s also a way of thinking about continuing education. She loves books, big ideas, teaching, and conversation as a means of making forward progress. In this episode of the Play Your Position Podcast, she dives deep into what’s going on in higher ed today from the shift to online courses to the rise of people returning to school later in life because they want to get better.
