The potential elimination of the Department of Education raises profound concerns for higher education institutions, including access to federal funding, student financial aid, and accreditation processes. At a webinar on February 7, Bruce Thompson and Nina Gupta of Parker Poe, along with Ken Preede of Parker Poe Federal Strategies, explored:

1.    The legislative hurdles and likelihood of DOE dismantling.
2.    The potential disruption to Pell Grants, Federal Work-Study, and other aid programs.
3.    The implications for accreditation and federally funded research.
4.    How institutions can advocate effectively to influence the future of higher education policy.
