In this episode of Together: A Higher-Ed Podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Taylor Randall, President of the University of Utah, and Dr. Greg Peterson, President of Salt Lake Community College, to explore the power of institutional partnerships in expanding student success and access to higher education.
The presidents discuss the unique strengths of the SLCC-UU partnership, emphasizing how collaboration between two- and four-year institutions can create seamless transfer pathways and opportunities for students. They share insights on building institutions that work for everyone, prioritizing student success, and embedding these efforts into long-term strategic planning.
We also dive into the challenges of driving transformative change in higher education—balancing innovation with tradition, ensuring higher ed remains valuable and accessible, and building a culture of student-centered decision-making. Whether you’re an educator, administrator, or student, this conversation offers a look at the future of postsecondary education.
