During his first few months in office, President Trump has tried to reshape higher education with a barrage of executive orders and actions aimed at transforming key parts of the academic enterprise. The frenzy of dramatic pronouncements, sudden reversals, and legal wrangling has created tremendous uncertainty for colleges.

The Chronicle is committed to helping readers make sense of the chaos. So we’re hosting a series of virtual events in the coming weeks to examine challenges that are top of mind for colleges, their employees, and their students.

Sign up for free today and you'll automatically be registered for three upcoming sessions. Each one will feature Rick Seltzer, author of The Daily Briefing, higher ed's essential morning newsletter, and Sarah Brown, The Chronicle's news editor:

• April 3: 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT
• April 24: 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT
• May 8: 1 p.m. ET / 10 a.m. PT

At each session, we'll cover the most significant topics of the moment, whether they pertain to DEI on campus, higher-ed finance, admissions, or other issues that emerge in the news.

Don’t worry if you can’t commit to all three dates: When you sign up, we’ll send you reminders in advance of each event. After the sessions end, you’ll receive links to watch the recordings on demand.
