Clark College first-year President Karin Edwards spoke on advancing racial equity in higher education, continuing budget challenges facing the college and how the school has responded to COVID-19 in her virtual State of the College Address.
The 35-minute address late last week was the school’s second attempt at delivering Edwards’ message. It cited technical issues when the prerecorded video was pulled from its website and YouTube minutes into its debut Jan. 28.
