In the latest episode of Conversations with Crystal, I speak with Eric Thompson, who currently serves as the Adult Learner Innovation Manager and an Adult Learner Coach for KC Scholars. His 20 years of experience in higher education have included roles in residence life, student support services and most recently, Eric served as Dean of Students at MCC – Penn Valley. We talk about his journey in higher education, his experience as a student at Jackson State University, as well as the need for our education systems to demonstrate a clear path for students to follow and see all of the opportunities available to them.
Enjoy!
