The pressure on higher education to prove its worth has never been greater. For community colleges and other broad-access institutions that center on economic mobility, the stakes are especially high. But with public skepticism rising and only a fraction of non-degree credentials delivering real wage gains, that promise is harder to keep — and harder to communicate. Join The Chronicle of Higher Education on Tuesday, June 30, at 2 p.m. ET for a virtual forum on improving student ROI and economic mobility. A panel of college leaders and policy experts will discuss the practical and political realities of closing the gap between what colleges promise and what students experience. Register here You’ll come away with a clearer understanding of: How to define economic mobility in ways that reflect the realities of today’s diverse student populations, including adult learners, working students, first-generation students, and those from low-income backgrounds. What institutions and state systems should be tracking in the data, and where the gaps are. How community colleges balance rapid labor-market responsiveness with their broader civic mission. How college leaders can communicate institutional value to students, employers, policymakers, and the public.

The “student swirl” — a pattern of undergraduates moving among institutions before earning a degree — has been part of higher-ed conversations for more than a decade. But today’s swirl looks different. It now encompasses a far broader population: adult learners returning after years away from college, dual-enrollment students earning college credit before they finish high school, and working adults seeking short-term certificates rather than degrees. According to the National Student Clearinghouse, transfer enrollment grew 4.4 percent in the fall of 2024 alone, and the lines between “traditional” and “nontraditional” students have blurred to the point where the old categories barely hold. That puts real pressure on institutions built around a linear model. The question isn’t whether the swirl is real. It’s whether your institution is ready for it. Join us on Thursday, July 9, at 2 p.m. ET to hear from a panel of administrators representing a range of institutions on what’s actually working. Whether you’re navigating stop-outs, transfer spikes, or a growing cohort of adult learners, this forum will offer candid perspectives on adapting to a student body that no longer moves in a straight line.
