## Resource

Mallory Willsea sits down with Dr. Nick Ladany, President of San Francisco Bay University, to unpack one of the boldest experiments in AI in higher education and student success strategies happening today. Together, they explore how SFBU is designing a human-centered, AI-integrated learning model that prioritizes capability development, workforce readiness, affordability, and access over outdated systems built around seat time and content delivery.
