Episode

Описание: Most students aren’t dropping out because they’re disengaged—they’re falling behind because your tech isn’t meeting their needs. In this energizing episode, Dustin chats with Shana Holman (  / shanaholman  ) , Head of Strategic Engagement and Alliances at Pathify (https://pathify.com/) , about the results of Pathify’s 2025 Student Digital Experience Survey (https://pathify.com/lp/2025-student-d...) . They unpack why digital friction is far more than an IT problem—it's a barrier to academic success, mental health, and student belonging.


From the mounting demand for unified platforms to the hidden equity issues plaguing your tech stack, this episode makes a compelling case for why the student experience must be reimagined—and what institutions can do today to make real progress.
