Inside Higher Ed: Multigenerational Admissions Policies and Scholarships Grow
In an article for Inside Higher Ed, Ascend’s Anne Mosle shares insights into the value of education for family economic mobility, financial security and ultimately well-being.
“The power of education, especially, is one of the most important indicators of economic mobility, financial security and ultimately well-being,” Anne Mosle said.
Mosle said higher ed leaders and policy makers asked themselves, “If we’re going to ensure the American dream, and the American dream can pass from one generation to the next and education is central to that, what would it look like if we started combining for children and the adults in their lives the power of education?”
