Jul 5, 2017

DIGITAL FELLOWS: A new project from the Association of Chief Academic Officers (ACAO) that intends to provide chief academic officers with resources and strategies to adopt digital courseware announced today its first cohort of 32 fellows. According to the press announcement, the year-long ACAO Digital Fellows program will offer the selected CAOs and provosts “ways to use digital technology to increase the retention and persistence to graduation among undergraduates, especially those who are first generation, low-income, or students of color.”

The selected fellows represent at least 20 states and come from universities including North Dakota State University, University of Maine, and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
