There’s no other way to say it: Data is king. Its importance is growing, as many say data is the most valuable asset higher-ed IT leaders and administrators can have. In higher education, your operational readiness depends on data, though scale, security and sprawl are significant challenges.
EDUCAUSE recently published the “2023 Top 10 Issues”: #1 – A Seat at the Table, #2 – Privacy and Cybersecurity 101; #7 – Moving from Data Insight to Data Action. As with all the top 10 IT Issues, these clearly indicate the importance of strong leadership, strong governance, and increased use of data in a complex hybrid environment that defy task-specific and silo-specific structures.
We invite you to join a fireside chat with industry and education leaders as they dive into this changing environment and share what they are doing in 2023 to protect and manage their data.
You’ll learn:
- Best practices for moving and managing workloads in hybrid environments
- How to keep data protection front and center – without stopping operations or incurring exorbitant costs
- How to adapt to evolving security practices and do so at speed and scale

The pedagogy gap: Redefining the role of faculty and AI in higher education
AI’s rapid integration into the higher-education landscape has prompted a period of profound structural reassessment. For decades, new technology adoption in education has often been driven by a “technology for technology’s sake” mentality–a pursuit of digital innovation that typically prioritizes the novelty of the tool over the efficacy of the intended outcome.
Higher education’s AI denial is not academic integrity–it’s institutional negligence
Higher education is having a familiar conversation in an unfamiliar moment. We are debating whether students “should” use AI, whether it is “ethical,” whether it is “cheating,” whether we can “ban” it, whether we can “detect” it, whether it will “go away.” This is what happens when an institution confuses discomfort with principle.
Students need more than AI access–they need AI rights
Higher education is moving at breakneck speed to embed AI into admissions, advising, instruction, grading, and student support, yet student protections have not kept pace with institutional enthusiasm.
