About the Event

The pilot of Cornell University president David Skorton's radio program, "Higher Ed in the Round," premieres Monday, March 5, at 7 p.m. on public radio station WEOS, and is offered to all public radio stations throughout the state. This first live show will feature a roundtable discussion with guests Peggy R. Williams, president of Ithaca College, and Carl Haynes, president of Tompkins Cortland Community College, on the broad range of issues related to the cost of higher education.

Following introductory comments by the panelists, listeners will be invited to call in or email their questions, thoughts and concerns.

The plan is for "Higher Ed in the Round" to become a monthly series that will feature Skorton and a range of interesting voices in higher education interacting with listeners on a variety of timely issues.
