As higher education leaders look for solutions to remedy current woes besetting the sector, they scour the traditional paradigm for clues. So far, uneven progress has been made.  This could be attributed to the fact that leaders are searching for solutions to problems inside the same system that caused them. Some commentators, notably Gordon Gee, have suggested that answers might be better sought outside the box if higher ed is remain relevant and viable.  In this episode I'll suggest that working from the inside and outside simultaneously and congruently is possible. I'll look at what can be learned from external paradigms and applied to a new “supply chain” approach to higher education.   EdUp Insights with Bill Pepicello is part of the EdUp Experience Network.  

Today Dave is joined by E. Gordon Gee, Ryan Schmelz, Dave Allen, Brad McElhinny, and Jonathan Savage.

Gordon Gee has drawn a lot of attention recently for his major overhaul of the University of West Virginia. But a closer look at his decades-long journey—some would say foray—through higher education reveals a dedication to evolving and improving the paradigm wherever he has served. Working from inside the traditional model, Gee has steadfastly done what he thinks is the right thing. On the other hand, John Sperling, founder of University of Phoenix, approached the traditional paradigm from the outside, introducing innovations that have altered the course of higher education in a number of ways. In this episode I'll look at the similarities between these two controversial visionaries as they have altered the landscape of higher education with two distinct approaches to the traditional paradigm.

According to CBS sports, In the futuristic realm of 2031, the concept of birthing a revolutionary "super-league" paradigm in college football gleams with brilliance and feasibility.This epoch coincides perfectly with the expiration of prevailing media rights contracts for major conferences and the esteemed College Football Playoff. Termed as "coterminous," deriving its essence from the Latin roots signifying "shared boundaries," this juncture presents an opportune moment for restructuring collegiate football ownership, fostering symbiotic relationships between educational institutions and their media affiliates.Yet, the current epoch seems ill-fated for such transformative endeavors. Insights gleaned from discussions at the Final Four in Glendale, Arizona, indicate a prevailing sentiment of temporal incongruence with the proposed "super league" notion. Initially broached by a consortium of collegiate leaders, this visionary undertaking mirrors the metamorphosis witnessed by the NFL in the 1960s, under the sagacious guidance of former commissioner Pete Rozelle. Rozelle's visionary persuasions led to the equitable distribution of revenue among NFL franchises, a precedent upheld through decades, even enduring Supreme Court scrutiny.Amidst the looming uncertainties engulfing collegiate sports' trajectory, the 20 luminaries spearheading the "College Sports Tomorrow" initiative brace themselves for a formidable clash against the envisioned futures advocated by the Big Ten and SEC. West Virginia University president and esteemed CST member, Gordon Gee, articulates a resolute stance against relegating pivotal decisions solely to commissioners and athletic directors, advocating for a holistic university perspective in charting the course of collegiate athletics.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Monopoly GO!Get in the game and join your friends.

The university has announced deep cuts, which will eliminate 169 faculty members (7% of the faculty) and 32 of the university's 338 majors.

David Miliband, CEO and president of the International Rescue Committee, says he's concerned the war in Ukraine is becoming "normalized." He talks about the war and the humanitarian crisis it has created. And, as part of its plans to make up for a $45 million budget shortfall, the leaders of West Virginia University announced it will end its advanced study of foreign languages programs. Paula Krebs, executive director of the Modern Language Association, explains what's at stake for students, and WVU President E. Gordon Gee shares how he is justifying the cuts. Then, a flurry of hiring of diversity, equity and inclusion specialists followed the murder of George Floyd three years ago. And now, DEI executives leaving their posts or being let go. Professor Shaun Harper, founder and executive director of the University of Southern California Race and Equity Center, joins us.

Read the transcript of this podcast here: The world of higher education has been in shock this past week after West Virginia University President E. Gordon Gee announced plans to dramatically cut academic programs and jobs in the coming year. "West Virginia University, a crucial institution in one of the nation's most impoverished states, is poised to jettison all of its faculty dedicated to teaching Spanish, French, Chinese and other foreign languages," Nick Anderson reports at The Washington Post. "The state's largest public university also is moving toward elimination of a master's degree program in creative writing and a doctoral program in mathematics, among other proposed cuts, in response to declining enrollment and what university officials call a 'structural' budget deficit of $45 million. In all, 32 of the university's 338 majors on its Morgantown campus would be discontinued and 7 percent of its faculty eliminated under a plan made public last week." If WVU proceeds with the proposed cuts, the impact on campus workers—student employees, grad workers, faculty, staff, facilities workers—and the local economy will be massive.What brought WVU to this crisis point? And what can be done to fight back? In this urgent episode, we talk with: Leslie Wilber, an organizer with West Virginia Campus Workers who graduated with a Master of Fine Arts degree from WVU earlier this year; Morgan King, a recent graduate of WVU, a Fulbright Scholar, and a Marshall Scholar; Dr. Jessie Wilkerson, associate professor and Joyce and Stuart Robbins Chair of History at WVU, a member of the West Virginia Campus Workers union, and the author of To Live Here, You Have to Fight: How Women Led Appalachian Movements for Social Justice.Featured Music (all songs sourced from the Free Music Archive at freemusicarchive.org):Jules Taylor, "Working People" Theme Song

According to CBS Sports, "West Virginia coach Bob Huggins has resigned as Mountaineers men's basketball coach after he was arrested Friday night in Pittsburgh for driving under the influence of alcohol. Huggins, who informed the team of his impending resignation Saturday night, intends to retire. WVU president E.

On behalf of West Virginia University, we share our appreciation for his service to our University, our community and our state.

His contributions will always be a part of our history. In the days ahead, we will focus on supporting the student-athletes in our men's basketball program and solidifying leadership for our program."Huggins, 69, is one of the biggest figures in college basketball with two Final Fours and more than four decades of coaching to his name. Until his ouster, he was the active leader in Division I wins (934) as his head-coaching career dated back to Walsh College in 1980. Huggins was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2022, an achievement many in the basketball community considered long overdue, even in spite of Huggins never reaching the national championship game."Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BirddogsGo to birddogs.com/lockedoncollege and they'll throw in a free custom birddogs Yeti-style tumbler with every order.FanDuelMake Every Moment More.

Advantage Valley flexes its manufacturing muscle…Homer Hickam's ‘Rocket Boys' comes to Theatre West Virginia…and Huntington touts successes at its leadership conference…on today's daily304. #1 – From LIVABILITY – Advantage Valley – West Virginia's Charleston-Huntington metro region --  is flexing its manufacturing muscle with a wave of new investment and expansions at existing industries that are creating jobs.  Manufacturers find Advantage Valley attractive because of the region's workforce-focused training. The region's booming advanced manufacturing sector has the lowest employee turnover rate in the nation.  GreenPower Motor Co., a Canada-based company that began manufacturing all-electric school buses in Advantage Valley in September 2022, utilized the region's training resources to empower its workforce. GreenPower, which has created 200 jobs and will boost the Advantage Valley economy by $500 million over five years, partnered with BridgeValley Community & Technical College and the Workforce Development Board of Kanawha County to help train its workers to manufacture the all-electric school buses.

Performances run July 14-29. “Rocket Boys,” a musical based on the 1998 New York Times #1 bestseller by NASA engineer Homer Hickam (also immortalized in the hit film, “October Sky”), has received a huge and overwhelmingly positive reaction from the musical theater community since its initial stages. The memoir of a misfit coal-miner's son in West Virginia who engages some skeptical friends to join his dream of rockets and space is one of the leading Community/Library Reads across the country, a staple on school lists, and is published now in nearly every language across the globe.

Huntington kicked off the first session of the 2023 class of Leadership West Virginia. Celebrating 32 years, LWV was created in 1991 by the West Virginia Chamber of Commerce to cultivate leaders in the state. The program has graduated more than 1,450 alumni who have gone on to various leadership positions in government, business, charities, nonprofits and more. A lengthy list of improvements can be attributed to the city's leadership. The city secured a $3 million grant in 2017 by winning America's Best Communities Competition. Once labeled the nation's most obese city, Huntington was able to reduce its obesity rate by more than 15 percentage points thanks to a renewed focus on fitness and healthy eating.  The city has tackled an opioid epidemic by creating quick response teams to help overdose victims and focusing on new treatment options. Marshall University President Brad Smith is working with his WVU counterpart, E. Gordon Gee, in the Ascend West Virginia program, which creates incentives for remote workers to relocate to several West Virginia communities.

Bob Huggins, the head coach of the West Virginia Mountaineers, has been suspended for the first three games of the 2023-24 season, and his salary has been reduced by $1 million annually. Huggins has also been ordered to undergo sensitivity training after he used an anti-gay slur during an appearance on a Cincinnati radio station, jeopardizing his job. The incident occurred after longtime Cincinnati radio host Bill Cunningham and former Huggins assistant coach Steve Moeller got Huggins on the phone. Cunningham asked Huggins about Xavier University, his rival when he was the head coach at Cincinnati from 1989-2005. Huggins responded by describing Xavier fans throwing “rubber penises on the floor” during a Crosstown Shootout game against Cincinnati. Cunningham then asked if that happened on “transgender night?” to which Huggins responded with the offensive language.Huggins has since released an apology statement admitting to using “a completely insensitive and abhorrent phrase” and described himself as “ashamed and embarrassed and heartbroken.” West Virginia's athletic department released a statement of its own describing Huggins' remarks as “insensitive” and “offensive” and saying the matter was “under review.” In a joint statement, West Virginia president Gordon Gee and athletic director Wren Baker made it clear to Huggins "that any incidents of similar derogatory and offensive language will result in immediate termination."Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

According to a recent study by John Hopkins University, 1 in 500 Americans have died from coronavirus since the nation's first reported infection. Think about that for a second and after you do check how many friends you have on Facebook, Twitter, etc and see what that would equate to for you. If you knew that you could save their life, would you? This podcast was recorded with that one person in mind. We talk with Dr. Clay Marsh, the Coronavirus Response Coordinator for West Virginia. This state has the lowest vaccination record in the country, and his job is to find ways to change that and help West Virginia return back to normal. Our conversation is directly geared towards those who are unvaccinated. There is no talk of politics, or judgement for those who choose to remain unvaccinated, just straight talk out of the mouth of an expert. We discuss the following:AntibodiesIvermectinHerd ImmunityVariantsVaccinesThe future of Covid-19And we even role play, with me asking questions from the standpoint of a vaccine hesitant person. If you, or if you know someone, who isn't vaccinated and want the real facts with no spin, no politics, no judgment and no guilt, you are going to want to catch this episode and then send it to someone you love. Guest Bio:Clay Marsh, MD, is West Virginia University's chief health officer, and serves as a member of President E. Gordon Gee's leadership team.  As WVU's vice president for health sciences, he oversees five health sciences schools and three health campuses, and serves on the governing boards that determine policy and priorities for WVU Medicine and its component organizations. In addition, as executive dean, he is the leader of the WVU School of Medicine.In his role as WVU's health leader, he has mobilized resources across the University to help WVU Medicine become the leading employer in the state and to build signature programs of excellence in the areas of heart and vascular care, cancer prevention and treatment, women's and children's health, trauma and critical care, and neurological health and disease.
