Education Secretary Arne Duncan will participate in a webinar on Aug. 7 to discuss the Obama administration’s higher education agenda and take questions from campus leaders. American Council on Education President Molly Corbett Broad will also participate.

The webinar is scheduled for 2 p.m. EDT and is co-sponsored by the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO).

“In the six months since his inauguration, President Obama has moved higher education to the forefront of the national conversation about how to better prepare our work force, strategically position our nation to compete in a global economy, and ensure a brighter future for all Americans,” said Broad. “I am grateful that Secretary Duncan has made time in his busy schedule for this conversation, and I want to thank NACUBO for helping to make this event possible.”
