The Sandbox, a weekly newsletter, is a benefit for paying Insider members designed to help higher ups in higher ed do their challenging jobs. It’s a place to play and create, share ideas, and allow leaders to say what they really think. We strive to provide a Saturday morning read that is both insightful and entertaining. And we rely on current and past leaders to write to and for us. Contact author Rachel Toor if you want to share feedback and jump into the conversation.
The Sandbox is sent each Saturday morning. Not receiving it? Email us at membership@insidehighered.com.
And now for something completely different: not just another boring newsletter to doom scroll.
“College athletics has become another chapter in the tale of moral rot at the center of American life.”
“Whenever someone looks me up, they see those early stories that make it seem like I did something terribly wrong.”
When the spotlight is on you, it can burn. Especially when you can't say what actually happened.
"There is a culture of being a president and it is weird."
Can you trust your trustees to read? Yes, and you can help them help you.
In honor of Labor Day, we have someone who wants to tell you how to do your job.
Huge thanks to everyone who has supported this quirky newsletter for the past year, especially the presidents and chancellors who have written such honest pieces for us (for no credit, no money, and no self- or institutional promotion).
Everyone has worked on revising policies, but is that enough to prepare for what might be a bumpy ride in the fall?
Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes it just gets really weird.
