Now that Donald Trump has been elected – and with a GOP-dominated Congress behind him – it’s time higher education administrators prepare for what’s ahead in 2017 and the succeeding three years of a Trump Administration. Moving beyond the new president’s penchant for provocative tweets, we can identify many road signs pointing in the likely direction of his policies and positions and therefore be better equipped for regulatory changes on the horizon. By examining actions that have already been taken, campaign statements of Trump and Pence, as well as the new president’s proposed appointments to his cabinet and other key posts, we can better understand and prepare for the Trump higher education landscape.
Please join Dr. Jim Castagnera as he reviews all the major topics of concern to administrators and trustees as higher educators enter the new Trump Administration.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

Just a sampling of what this webinar will cover:
  • What are the likely changes we can expect in the federal approach to student financial aid?
  • Will the new secretary of education, billionaire Betsy DeVos, favor for-profit providers over community colleges, reversing the Obama Administration’s policies, and will this mean a revitalization of private higher education across the board?
  • What changes Secretary DeVos is likely to mandate for her Office of Civil Rights regarding Title IX enforcement, especially regarding sexual-assault investigations and enforcement on our campuses?
  • How will the Supreme Court be affected by a Trump replacement for the late Justice Scalia, and how will the reconstituted Court impact affirmative action?
  • Will the Supreme Court revisit the Yeshiva University decision and lower the bar for tenured-faculty managerial status under the National Labor Relations Act?
  • How President Trump’s two new GOP appointments to the National Labor Relations Board will impact GA/TA unionization rights
  • Whether President Trump is likely to nullify his predecessor’s “Dream Act” executive order and how that could impact undocumented students on our campuses
  • How enhanced enforcement of U.S. immigration laws may spill over into university administration of international and exchange students
  • Whether the Department of Labor’s new exempt-employee salary regulations, enjoined by a federal judge in last November, will be rescinded
  • AND MUCH MORE!
