Live from DisruptED with Phil Hill and Charlie Rose

About the Episode: 

In this bonus episode recorded live at the Collegis Education DisruptED summit in Phoenix, we spoke with Phil Hill and Charlie Rose about the rapidly shifting higher education policy landscape and its implications for institutions. They unpack how recent federal actions—particularly new legislation and accelerated rulemaking—are creating both urgency and uncertainty, while also signaling a longer-term shift toward accountability, affordability, and measurable student outcomes. 

The conversation highlights that while the current moment may feel chaotic, many of these changes are driving necessary conversations about return on investment, institutional value, and alignment with workforce needs. Ultimately, it’s a call for leaders to stay adaptable, focus on long-term structural shifts rather than short-term noise, and continue innovating in ways that best serve students.
