Looking to defend higher ed, even if you can't be in D.C. Thursday?

Our team is seeking short (30-60 second) videos from students, educators, and advocates across the country to help build momentum in the lead-up to our June 12th advocacy day in Washington. These videos spotlight why defending access to higher education matters: what makes it so dangerous that the Senate is considering a budget that would dramatically hike the endowment tax, slash Pell Grants, and push part-time students out of the system entirely?

We're looking for heartfelt, personal messages that speak to what higher education has made possible for you—or, what might be lost if we let this moment pass. Whether you're a first-generation student, a full-time caregiver earning your degree part-time, a research whose work depends on university support, or simply someone who believes in the promise of accessible education, we want your voice in this effort.

If you're interested in recording a video for our team, email conor.webb@yale.edu.
