In this episode of The Higher Ed Pulse, hosts Seth and Mallory discuss the transformative role of AI in student recruitment and higher education. As the potential for AI continues to evolve, the duo explores the current state of AI in universities, sharing insights on personalization, staff efficiency, and the future of AI-driven communication. They touch on the challenges faced by institutions, including staff shortages and underpreparedness for AI adoption, and offer practical examples of AI tools currently making a difference in recruitment.Key TakeawaysOnly 9% of CTOs feel higher ed is ready for AI, though 46% are excited about its potential, highlighting a gap between enthusiasm and preparedness.AI-driven personalization in student recruitment is helping move away from mass marketing toward more tailored and efficient strategies.Proactive AI agents, capable of real-time engagement and outreach, will soon take over routine recruitment tasks like completing applications.AI is already being used to increase efficiency, from automating competitor analysis with ChatGPT to generating image content for ads and resizing photos using Ars Technica.AI-driven communication, such as voice assistants for real-time interactions, will help serve underserved student populations, particularly first-gen students.This episode of The Higher Ed Pulse tackles the ever-evolving role of artificial intelligence in student recruitment and the broader higher education landscape. Hosts Seth and Mallory set the stage by discussing recent findings from Inside Higher Ed's survey of campus CTOs, which reveals that while enthusiasm for AI is high, few believe higher education is truly prepared for the rapid changes it will bring. Only 9% of CTOs feel ready for the rise of AI, while 50% are still investing in basic AI technologies like chatbots.The discussion quickly shifts to more practical applications of AI in student recruitment, particularly in the realm of personalization. Seth shares how AI allows institutions to move away from mass marketing strategies to micro-targeting, tailoring communications based on students' specific needs, interests, and behaviors. For instance, AI-powered email variations and proactive chatbots can enhance engagement by acting on behalf of the student without waiting for them to initiate contact.Seth highlights several real-world examples of AI in action. He talks about using ChatGPT for competitor analysis and integrating iPEDS data to gain deeper insights into market dynamics. On the creative side, tools like Ars Technica can resize and optimize images, making it easier to repurpose content for different ad formats. This level of efficiency, according to Seth, can save institutions time and money while also improving the quality of their outreach efforts.Mallory brings attention to the student experience, noting how AI can step in where staff shortages and a lack of training hinder effective communication. AI assistants, particularly those equipped with voice features, can provide students with real-time, accurate information, even during off-hours. This is especially critical for first-gen students, who often require more guidance in navigating complex processes like financial aid applications. Voice-driven AI can engage students in natural, human-like conversations, helping them complete tasks and reducing the need for constant human intervention.As the conversation unfolds, the hosts reflect on how AI can also impact the delivery of academic programs. Seth shares a fascinating case from a recent conference, where a university was able to reduce the cost of delivering its MBA program through AI, offering it internationally at a significantly lower price point. This, in turn, opened up new markets and improved recruitment efforts. The episode concludes with a look ahead at future AI innovations, such as cloning the voices of admissions staff to create more personalized, scalable interactions with prospective students. With AI technology advancing rapidly, the potential to streamline recruitment and improve the student experience is limitless.If you're eager to learn more about how AI is shaping the future of higher education, don't miss out on the AI Engage Summit where Seth will be the keynote speaker.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (June 20, 2024) – For Keith Wynn, UK's assistant director of Transfer Recruitment, the journey to higher education wasn't a traditional one.

Join AACPM BOD members, Dr. Jeffrey Jensen, Dr. Jonathan Labovitz, Dr. Robert Snyder, and AACPM Executive Director, Ms. Mori North, to discuss the "Feet on the Street" Student Recruitment Initiative.  The visits to 220 Colleges and Universities will highlight podiatric medicine and bring together 3 groups: advisors, students interested in health professions, and a shadowing DPM. The goal is to make the introduction to podiatric medicine a seamless experience for prospective students. AACPM is partnering with the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons (ACFAS) and others to assist in the process of developing a network of incredible DPMs to provide shadowing and mentoring opportunities to students across the country. As Dr. Stephanie Wu, Dean, William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine so aptly stated in Dean's Chat Episode 1 - "It's all hands on deck!" Enjoy and get involved! In this episode of Dean's Chat, Dr. Jeffrey Jensen discusses the “Feet on the Street” student with Dr. Jonathan Labovitz, Dr. Robert Snyder, and Ms. Mori North. They address the declining applicant pool in podiatric medicine and the challenges and opportunities it presents. Tune in to learn more about how AACPM is working to address this issue and attract more students to the field. The episode discusses an initiative that aims to connect students with multiple doctors for shadowing opportunities in the field of podiatry. The goal is to provide students with diverse experiences and exposure to different practices, enabling them to make informed decisions about their future careers. Emphasizing the importance of shadowing multiple practitioners and witnessing various practices, the episode believes that this approach will offer students a comprehensive understanding of the profession and help them determine if podiatry is the right path for them.  The initiative relies on individual practitioners opening their offices to students, and it hopes to encourage more practitioners to participate, providing students with a range of shadowing opportunities. Furthermore, the episode highlights the need for metrics to measure the effectiveness of the initiative and ensure its success. Recognizing the significant investment of time and money required for a career in podiatry, the episode stresses the importance of ample shadowing experiences for students to make informed decisions about their future in the profession. The episode also discusses the importance of building personal relationships and mentorship with Doctors of Podiatric Medicine at universities to drive applications. They acknowledge that pre-health advisors may not always know which DPMs to connect students with for shadowing and mentorship opportunities. Therefore, the program aims to establish connections between universities and DPMs, enabling universities to provide students with shadowing experiences and mentorship directly from designated DPMs. Dean's Chat Website  Dean's Chat Episodes  Dean's Chat Blog Why Podiatric Medicine?  Become a Podiatric Physician

Micromanagement does no favors to employer branding. However, faculty and staff may be willing to be the brand ambassadors of their campuses if their leaders knew how to…dance? There is a practice called followership which is the set of employee behaviors that influence how leaders lead. So, what happens when leaders micromanage? Sharna Fabiano, a certified leadership coach, uses her experience as an internationally recognized tango artist to help leaders understand how to work productively with their people. As the chair of the International Leadership Association's Followership Member Community, Sharna helps us understand what followership is, why micromanagement is received so negatively by employees, and how leaders can invite their employees to “the dance floor” to foster more collaborative and productive work environments. This Episode is Brought to You By Our Friends at OlogieIn higher education, it's almost impossible to truly stand out.
