Students are changing, and so should the ways colleges think about serving them.” Today, the needs of our students are more diverse than ever! Incoming freshmen in 2020 will be the most diverse student population yet, and this #GenZ population has high expectations for their college experience. How can educators and employers adjust their strategies for success? @Pearson’s top tip: Consider individual needs and desires over a one size fits all approach. Great advice – for anyone! • • • • • #thursdaymotivation #thursday #MIT #computerscience #innovate #college #learn #professionaldevelopment #architecture #building #design #grow #domore #nonprofit #teach #learn #educate #educator #noregrets

Have you met Dr. Neil Hunt? The former Chief Product Officer of #Netflix graduated with a Computer Science degree from Durham University and recently made a 3.5-million-dollar donation to #Durham in support of #STEM programs supporting diversity for future #tech leaders! Dr. Hunt’s advice for college students: “always ask ‘Why?’ and ‘What for?’ and ‘What if?’ Technology has potential for great benefit or great harm to society, and in my mind, self-value comes from contributing positively.” • • • • #Wednesdaymotivation #wednesday #netflix #marketing #STEMStudents #college #durhamcollege #postit #marketing #Diverse #diversity #bepositive #collegetstudent #advice
