In a year that feels brutal and undeserved, many educators are exhausted. Some are angry. Others have suffered devastating personal consequences.

Yet it’s never been more important to meet the moment in higher education.

The time is now for educators to challenge themselves to serve their higher calling. They must take a beat and learn more about the inspiring work of the larger education community, which has collaborated on an array of in-person, blended and online tools in innovative ways for learning and student support.
