74. Let’s Learn About THESIS: Trends in Higher Education in International Spheres Podcast with Kelly Davis.

Kelly Davis joins Yo to discuss THESIS, an independent podcast, created by a group of international students who are currently in a Masters Program in Higher Education at the University of Oslo in Norway (the podcast is not affiliated with the University of Oslo). The theme for their first season, which just recently ended, was to discuss geo politics and the use of higher education as a form of soft power in autocratic regimes. Their second season which began June 7 and will focus on first generation students and higher education on a global level.   Kelly is also a special guest because she was in Girl Scout Troup 2136 which Yo led.   During the episode Kelly and Yo explored higher education trends and how it’s changing.   Here are the 3 Takeaways:   1.    We can expect a drop in enrollment in the years to come due to a declining birthrate. 2.    The reasons for not going to college cannot be easily defined and we can question if the motivation and role of higher education leads to more social mobility. 3.    Our views on higher education are U.S. centric and outside the U.S. it’s a different story - if we think higher education has no value we should look outside the U.S.   We hope you’ll enjoy this inspiring episode!   As mentioned in the episode – Direct links to podcast:   Anchor.fm:  Spotify Apple Google Stitcher Amazon Music   Ways you contact the THESIS team:   Kelly Davis Maria Angeles Hidalgo  Ayla Rubenstein Tracy Waldman Ekaterina Kurinskaia   Podcast Website: https://thesispodcast.com/   LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thesis-podcast-trends-in-higher-education-systems-international-spheres/   Twitter (@THESISpodcast): https://twitter.com/THESISpodcast    Ways to reach Yo: eMail  [email protected]    Public FB group: Girl, Take the Lead! https://www.facebook.com/groups/272025931481748/?ref=share   Linktr.ee/yocanny   IG: https://www.instagram.com/yocanny LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yocanny/
