Sara Goldrick-Rab leads a discussion on the challenges of food and housing insecurity facing community college students and efforts to address those challenges. Presidents from three Texas community colleges discuss approaches from three different perspectives—a large urban district, a moderate-sized college in a borderland, and a rural college in the Panhandle.

What's the real value of a board retreat? Are retreats in order just when a crisis arises at the college, when board members can't get along, or are they useful for keeping everything running well among a well-run board? In this episode, Jacob Bray sits down with Director of Educational Services Colleen Allen, former St. Petersburg College Trustee and former Chair of the ACCT Board of Directors Ken Burke, and former President of Lane Community College Mary Spilde to discuss what board retreats are good for, what they're not good for, and how to get the most out of them. For more information, contact Colleen Allen at callen@acct.org.
