Free Webinar from Inside Higher Ed

What Parents Think About College

Monday, May 6, 2013 1:00:00 PM CDT - 2:00:00 PM CDT
Parents of pre-college students offer their views on the most important reasons to go to college, why jobs matter, the liberal arts, money and affirmative action in an Inside Higher Ed survey conducted in conjunction with researchers from Gallup. In this free webinar, Inside Higher Ed editor Scott Jaschik will review the survey results with Jacques Steinberg -- senior consultant at Say Yes to Education and until recently a higher education reporter at The New York Times and creator of "The Choice" blog, and Lynda McGee -- counselor at the Downtown Magnets High School in Los Angeles and chair of the public school counselors group within National Association for College Admission Counseling.

The webinar will consist of a 30-minute presentation and a 30-minute question period. There is no conference call required for this event -- the entire presentation, including audio, is delivered via the web. Your registration entitles you to one connection to the event -- you may gather as many colleagues as you like to view the presentation via one monitor, but only one connection per registration will be allowed. This event will be captioned for the deaf and hard of hearing by SpeechText Access. The Inside Higher Ed survey of parents was made possible in part by the generous financial support of McGraw-Hill Education, TIAA-CREF and Zinch, a Chegg service. Your registration information will be shared with these companies.
