  21. "Community colleges are scrambling to adjust to the many disruptive changes AI is bringing both to the classroom and to how the institutions need to think about preparing students for the future.

    That was the subject of a Harvard Business School conference focused on overcoming the unique financial, administrative, and curricula challenges facing the schools, which offer both vocational training and an option for the first two years of a bachelor’s degree program.

    What has become clear is that AI cannot be ignored.

    “More than 70 percent of employers say they’d rather hire someone with less experience but who understands AI than someone with more experience. That’s a big change,” said Lisa Gevelber, chief marketing officer for Gemini, Google’s AI product.

    The daylong conference was organized by the Project on Workforce at HBS, the Education Design Lab, and Axim Collaborative, a Harvard-MIT nonprofit that supports organizations that help students overcome obstacles that keep them from completing a community college education. It featured leaders from both the public and private sectors as well as community college administrators and scholars."
