ALP: The Admissions Leadership Podcast
Education
Laura Kaub of the UNHCR asks, "Why is it so hard for exceptional students to get access to education?"
Laura Kaub, director of the Duolingo partnership with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees program, talks about keeping refugees and African students out of the "hole" in holistic admission so they can get into the economic, educational and political systems that can bring about change. She provides examples of U.S colleges that "get it right," including Macalester and Northwestern, as well as models around the globe, like Rwanda and Uganda.
Contact Laura directly if you're interested in talking with her about the students she serves.
