In this episode of Together: A Higher-Ed Podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Jason Taylor, Associate Professor in the College of Education and Assistant Dean for Transfer Student Success at the University of Utah. Jason shares his journey from being a first-generation student and music major to becoming a national scholar in transfer policy and community colleges.
He dives deep into how personal mentorship, public policy, and systems-level thinking shaped his path—and how the University of Utah is transforming transfer student success through curricular alignment, inclusive programming, and community partnerships.
This conversation is a must-listen for anyone passionate about access, equity, and how listening to students can drive lasting change.
