Cardona also called on college leaders to make their presence known on K-12 campuses, build a culture of belonging on campus and increase their enrollment number of Pell-eligible students.
Education Secretary Miguel Cardona, during his Wednesday speech, also admonished elite colleges. | Susan Walsh/AP PhotoEducation Secretary Miguel Cardona on Wednesday pitched several ideas to lessen the blow of the Supreme Court’s decision to gut affirmative action while also taking his jabs at elite colleges and the high court.
The secretary added that colleges “have lost the most effective tool they ever had for building diverse campus communities” and the decision “feels like a new low point” for higher education. He also pitched reimagining how colleges recruit students and connect with K-12, expanding need-based aid, increasing applications from underrepresented communities, expanding career and technical education and dual enrollment programs and resolving credit transfer issues.“I also want to see more of our elite institutions with incredibly high graduation rates step up their enrollment of Pell Grant recipients... College rankings be damned,” Cardona said.
