WICHE's Policy Analysis and Research unit hosted a meeting of experts in demography and population projections on September 7. These experts have agreed to serve as a technical review panel for WICHE's Knocking at the College Door methodology review project.

Other fall meetings include the annual Legislative Advisory Committee meeting, themed “New Directions in Higher Education: Where Do We Go From Here?” as well as the fourth meeting of the multistate data exchange project working group (probable agenda topics include a discussion of what data elements will be exchanged and the extent to which those elements are defined uniformly across states and systems) and a Policy-facilitated meeting with staff from the North Dakota University System, key higher education leaders in the state, and members of the Adult Learners Council that will focus on how the state can identify and bring their “ready adults” (those adults who have previously earned a significant number of college credits but who have not yet returned to campus) back to postsecondary education to complete their credentials.
