Matt was exceptional. He did more for the heart and soul of Baton Rouge than anyone I know. Smart, humble, giving, steadfast. Huge loss, our community should be forever grateful for his many efforts to better the lives of others. Rest in peace my friend. theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/…
Lots of concern about AI killing entry-level jobs, but employers are ~2.5× more likely to say AI is increasing their entry-level hiring needs than decreasing them.

My latest in @TheAtlantic:
Eliminating BA requirements for govt jobs (aka skills-based hiring), as both presidential candidates propose, isn't good enough.
We need to create better career pathways in fields like health, IT, and manufacturing.
Don't just subsidize, build.

Universities are funny. Hey what if we took a medieval institution for training priests and aristocrats and combined it w a hedge fund, sports franchise and resort for teenagers

“You look at an online job application, and it's incredibly user unfriendly,” @JosephBFuller says. “Companies invest tens of millions of dollars on user experience for customers, but don't bring any of that discipline to applicant experience.”

Finally, I want to reinforce that career prep is just one of several valuable purposes of higher ed. Nevertheless, most students desire and need a positive economic outcome from their substantial investment of time & money to complete a bachelor's degree.
