Life in Higher Ed
Welcome to Life in Higher Ed. We are senior higher education administrators and combined we have over 50 years of experience. We are here to talk about what goes on behind the scenes on college and university campuses. We surface the interesting, the confounding, and the seemingly absurd, and we do so with honesty and a sprinkling of humor. We want to help you not only survive but thrive and to know that you are not alone in your journey. If you are an administrator in higher ed or considering becoming an administrator, this podcast is for you!

Demystifying Governance - Katie Herschede
In this episode, Katie Herschede talks about demystifying governance. " Higher education is best when we all know each other. When we all work together. When we all are engaged in the governance process. When we all engaged in the life and the rhythms of the campus."
