Show Notes

Today’s program is part of an ongoing series of conversations examining the future effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on education in Georgia. We begin with a two-part conversation with Spelman College President Mary Schmidt Campbell and Oglethorpe University President Larry Schall, who will discuss how small, liberal arts colleges and historically black colleges have adapted with social distancing requirements. Then, Dr. Bronwyn Ragan-Martin, superintendent of the Early County Board of Education in Southwest Georgia and Dr. Dana Rickman, vice president at the Georgia Partnership For Excellence In Education share how the pandemic has exacerbated already existing challenges for rural school districts, from a lack of funding to a lack of broadband access.
