## Resource

On this episode, the B2B team dive into higher education terminology, particularly focusing on jargon that may be confusing or clouded by the institutional "fog of war." They dissect key differences in terms such as 'president', 'dean', and 'provost', providing context for their origin in use, as well as clarity on their everyday purpose within academic institutions. The discussion aims to demystify the language used across the landscape of higher education, enabling students to traverse their academic journeys effectively and with confidence. ________________________________ Website: Lansing Community College Center for Veteran and Family Support
