What changes if any are occurring within educational facilities and the campus infrastructure to address change? And are we gaining or losing? This session will provide you the unique vantage points of accomplished education leaders, to include college administrators, educational facilities officers, and K-12 school system superintendents, as they share their perspective on “The Here and Now.” |
