Yes to all of this. I recently had the opportunity to speak before our House Ways and Means Committee and did just what you suggested. I focused on our diversity in its broadest forms including first-generation, veterans/military-connected, post-traditional, international, and ethnic minorities. I spoke about outcomes such as social mobility, career readiness, producing educated workers for the workforce in South Carolina, aligning degrees and majors with what employers seek, and undergraduate contributions to research which is impacts SC and the world. I don't think our education of others about what we truly do will fix everything, but it will address many things.

I love that you spoke about the outcomes and the social mobility. Those are tangible.

Thanks for exposing the disturbing Hillsdale agenda - it's one thing to have a private college with a specific mindset - it's quite another when that college seeks to re-write k-12 curriculum and impose its viewpoint on public colleges - all aided and abetted by those like Ronnie D who seek political fortune. Sad, really, but not unexpected in the post-Trump era.
