Supporting Student Parents in Rural America
A new commentary in Inside Higher Ed argues that colleges in rural America should do more to support students who are raising children while pursuing their degrees. It highlights the barriers student parents face in rural areas, including limited childcare, fewer nearby institutions, and transportation challenges, and calls on higher education leaders to build policies and services that help these students complete their education.
Why now: Student parenting and college access in rural communities are ongoing concerns in higher education policy debates.
