He describes partnership programs between the university and K-12 education and professional development programs in HRE for K-12 educators and their students. Glenn discusses challenges in forging partnerships within a university setting and hurdles and opportunities for HRE at Columbia University and other higher education institutions, and his thoughts on the creation of the University and College Consortium for HRE. Glenn highlights what he sees as a growing interest among students in programs that advance justice and the barriers constraining non-traditional programs in HRE.
