Rebecca Natow, associate professor and director of the EdD in Educational Leadership & Policy Studies program and the MSEd in Higher Education Leadership & Policy Studies, was interviewed for “Higher Ed Changes Loom Under a Second Trump Administration,” that appeared in the latest issue of Governing.



The article explains that when Donald Trump becomes president, he will likely undo federal regulations enacted by the Biden administration, affecting issues such as Title IX enforcement and protections for transgender students. Those regulations were partly an undoing of Trump’s first-term policies.


“It’s been a burden because the people who are working on the college campuses implementing these policies on the ground are having to learn all new policies,” said Dr. Natow.
