College costs more today than ever and is worth less. Tuition at public colleges has more than tripled in the past 50 years.

Internal and external pressure continues to mount for college professionals to provide evidence of successful activities, programs, and services, which means that nearly every campus professional will need to approach their work with a data-informed perspective.

Humans Who Teach invites listeners to explore the complicated humanity of those who teach, with a focus on how we have been socialized to accept the status quo, our very real fears in disrupting the status quo, and how we can rely on our human capacity to love to engage in teaching for social justice even in the presence of fear.
