The Chronicle of Higher Education's second annual 3-day Chronicle Ideas Festival brings together some of America's most innovative thinkers and thought leaders to discuss the ideas shaping the future of higher education. Speakers include New York Times best-selling author Malcom Gladwell; Cathy N. Davidson, co-author of The New College Classroom; and Michael Crow, president of Arizona State University.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 12, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Chronicle of Higher Education today announced its second annual Chronicle Ideas Festival, known as Chronfest, bringing together some of America's most innovative thinkers and thought leaders to discuss the ideas shaping the future of higher education. Speakers include New York Times best-selling author Malcom Gladwell; Cathy N. Davidson, co-author of The New College Classroom; and Michael Crow, president of Arizona State University. The festival begins with two days of free, virtual programming on Monday, October 31 and Tuesday, November 1, 2022, which will be followed up on November 3, 2022, with an exclusive, in-person gathering of senior higher-ed leaders in Washington D.C.

With higher education facing increased skepticism among students and the public, the program will focus on what colleges and universities can do to respond to societal and community needs, addressing topics such as how to improve the student experience, understanding the challenges of diverse student populations, and the future of learning.

“Chronfest is a forum for higher-ed professionals and key thought leaders to connect and engage in meaningful ways to shape the next generation of education innovation.”

"We're excited to convene leading thinkers on some of the most critical topics of our time which have an impact on the way people learn and how our society functions," said Michael Riley, Editor-in-Chief, Chronicle of Higher Education. "Chronfest is a forum for higher-ed professionals and key thought leaders to connect and engage in meaningful ways to shape the next generation of education innovation. With dozens of insightful experts in the room, we aim to inspire our audience to look beyond the current landscape, question its assumptions, and rethink conventional wisdom."

The Chronicle Ideas Festival extends the Chronicle's journalism beyond the written word, with the first day of programming designed to address student needs in conversations about revamping college campuses, updating the curriculum, and redesigning university classrooms to help students succeed in a rapidly evolving world. The Day One Agenda includes sessions featuring Jason Wingard, President of Temple University, on Why Colleges Must Change; The Classroom, Reinvented with Cathy N. Davidson and Christina Katopodis, of the City University of New York; and The Student View, a panel of students candidly discussing what more they want of out of higher ed.

The Day Two Agenda focuses on what colleges can do to connect with and support communities in a post-pandemic America. Malcolm Gladwell, the five-time New York Times best-selling author, co-founder of Pushkin Industries, and host of I Hate the Ivy League: Riffs and Rants on Elite Education, kicks the day off with What's Wrong – and Right – With American Higher Ed. Michael Crow, President, Arizona State University, author of The Evolving University, will address how universities can reinvent themselves in a time of rapid societal and economic change. In addition, a panel of experts will discuss Communicating Science in a Climate of Mistrust, and Will Bunch, author of After the Ivory Tower Falls: How College Broke the American Dream and Blew Up Our Politics―and How to Fix It, will present a session on Reconnecting a Divided America.

Journalists can directly submit questions for discussion during the virtual event. Attendees can connect socially using #CHRONFEST.
