One free ticket will still be offered to pre-K through eighth grade students and all teachers within a 100-mile radius of Fair Park. In other news, OSHA called Union Pacific a “serial violator” of the Federal Railroad Safety Act, citing 20 past violations.  A Texas railroad engineer was awarded more than $300,000 in back wages, damages and attorney's fees after a federal investigation found Union Pacific unlawfully fired him.

Someone once said that interviewing is tough, especially if you don't know what you're looking for. Another complicating factor is having no answer to predictable questions–a regrettably common occurrence for higher ed applicants. Amy and Mike invited educator Alison Slater to explore the importance of preparing for a college admissions interview. What are five things you will learn in this episode? Why is it important to prepare before an interview? Are interviews impactful considering that many schools don't offer them? Should students who are offered interviews take them? Who should prep for interviews and when? How can students prepare for all the interviews they are likely to have coming up?  What are some questions applicants should be prepared for? MEET OUR GUEST Alison Slater graduated from Bucknell University and worked in selective college admission for fifteen years. Interviews were her favorite part of the college application process, but she found they were often missed opportunities when students arrived nervous or unprepared. They were checking a box, not maximizing an opportunity. Alison founded Interview Prep to help students make strong impressions by preparing thoughtfully and approaching each interview with confidence and a plan.

On April 13th, 2018, Nepali New Year's Eve, the University of Texas at Tyler revoked full-ride scholarships it had previously awarded to 60 Nepali students. The university described it as "an administrative oversight." But the global education community knew that it was an unprecedented admissions crisis. The scholarships, which included tuition as well as room and board, were revoked well after most other US university application deadlines had passed. Thus, Nepali students had already declined offers from other institutions they had previously applied to. The moment UT Tyler's mass email hit the inboxes of these high-need, high-performing students, some were already midway through the visa process to attend UT Tyler, and all had celebrated the momentous feat of a hard-earned Presidential Scholarship. In the days following, Selena Malla at USEF-Nepal, Kathmandu, issued a call on social media for help. After seeing a call for support from Selena, Joan Liu, a university advisor at the United World College of South East Asia, Singapore, stepped forward to help. Joan assembled a group of counselors from several corners of the world to form a volunteer crisis management team. Joan Liu is on the show to explain how we can step up this September to support Second Chance. Ready to learn more? https://www.secondchance.global/

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of “Back to School” with some of the professors and staff from the Moody Bible Institute (MBI). First, we had Dr. Elizabeth Smith join us to talk about her Social Work Practices course and new 3-year online degree programs available at Moody. Dr. Smith is the Associate Dean of Academics for Moody Online and the Program Head of the Children and Family Ministry. She is also a Professor for Moody Online and on the Chicago campus. We then had Allie Marie Smith join us to discuss the effects of social media on our mental health. Allie is an award-winning author, speaker, entrepreneur, life coach, and podcast host. She is also the founder and CEO of Wonderfully Made, a non-profit that empowers girls and women to know their God-given value, identity, and purpose through flourishing lives and vibrant mental health. She is also the author of “Social Media Reset: A 30-Day Guided Journey to Unplug, Reconnect with God, Reclaim Your Joy.” We then discussed how, when we renew our minds, we will be able to discern the Will of God, and this is affirmed in Romans 12:1-2. Then we had Dr. William Washington join us to discuss the happenings at the MBI Chicago Campus. Dr. Washington is Vice President of Student Life and Enrollment at MBI.

What's a Registrar Anyway, Revisited

In the very first official episode of this podcast, we explored the question of what even is a registrar. Now, with six more years of experience that included a global pandemic, it was time to once again take stock of our understanding of the role of the registrar. What do we do? And how do we explain what we do to people who work at our institutions or to people  all the way outside of higher education? Five brave souls responded to my request for input on the following three questions that guide this episode: 1) what do you think of when you hear the word, “registrar?” 2) How would you describe the registrar to someone outside of higher education? And 3) Why are registrars important?   Key Takeaways:The registrar and higher education go hand in hand. Registrars were the second administrative position created, following only the position of president. Our title dates back to 1446 at Oxford. Registrars play a variety of roles at our institutions, and there isn't one right way to be a registrar. Because of the variety of institution type and missions, registrar responsibilities also vary widely.Registrars use a lot of metaphors to communicate how critical they are to their institutions; “plumbing,” “bridges,” “hubs,” “air traffic controllers,” “multi-tasking quarterback,” are all used. Being a registrar is easy. It's just like riding a bike. If the bike is on fire. And you're on fire. And everything around you is on fire.  Host:Doug McKennaUniversity Registrar, George Mason Universitycmckenn@gmu.edu   Guests:Dr. Reginald GarconAssociate Vice President/Registrar, University of Maryland - Eastern Shorergarcon@umes.eduRiver GordonRegistrar, Minneapolis College of Art and Designrgordon182@mcad.eduColleen HarmsAssociate Registrar, University of Minnesota - Twin Citiesharms231@umn.eduWhitney MerinarRegistrar, West Liberty State Collegewhitney.merinar@westliberty.eduKatie RendonRegistrar, Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religionkrendon@huc.eduReferences and Additional Information:Records & Academic Services (AACRAO Professional Proficiencies)Quann, C.

In this episode of the Admittedly Podcast, host Thomas Caleel takes a strategic pause to break down the seismic shifts hitting higher education right now—and what they mean for your application this year. From sweeping funding cuts at top universities, to uncertainty for international students, to new pressures for changes in campus culture, the landscape is changing fast. Thomas unpacks how these forces intersect with admissions strategy, why legacy students may have an edge once again, and why you still can't rely on luck or shortcuts. This is the episode to hear if you want to stay ahead of the curve and play this year's admissions game with eyes wide open. Key Takeaways: Funding Cuts Have Ripple Effects: Multi-million-dollar hits to endowments mean less money for research, professors, and student services. While no one is officially admitting it, full-pay and legacy applicants could benefit as schools seek financial stability. International Students Face More Uncertainty: Visa approvals may be shakier, and aid for non-U.S. students could shrink. If you're applying from abroad, diversify your list globally and take a long-term view toward grad school opportunities. “Non-Controversial” Is the New Campus Buzzword: Universities are feeling pressure to avoid volatile environments. Expect closer scrutiny of your online presence. This Is Not Carte Blanche: Even with shifts in seat allocation, hyper-selective schools will still reject most applicants. Strategy, rigor, and impact still matter more than ever. The bottom line? This may be a year of advantage for certain applicants, but the bar for admission remains sky-high. Your best play is to get strategic, stay authentic, and present your story with discipline and clarity. Are you feeling these changes in your own application plans?
