President Conrado “Bobby” Gempesaw, Ph.D., will lead a panel on the role international students may play in meeting the challenges of American higher education today at the fourth annual New York Times “Schools for Tomorrow” Conference – a gathering of academic, business, media, and technology leaders examining major issues in education.
The two-day conference, “Disruptions in the Lecture Hall,” begins on Monday, September 8. Dr. Gempesaw leads and moderates the panel discussion on “The Role of the International Student,” beginning at 7:45 a.m. on Tuesday, September 9.
