6. AI, Accreditation, and the Art of Dreaming Big: A Conversation with Marjorie Hass
In this special edition of EdUp Provost, recorded live at the ASU+GSV Summit in San Diego, host Dr. Gregor Thuswaldner sits down with Marjorie Hass, President of the Council of Independent Colleges (CIC), to explore the evolving role of AI in higher education — and what it means for institutions committed to their core values. Dr. Hass highlights CIC's partnership with ASU+GSV, which supports bringing presidents and provosts to the summit, and the need for stable, flexible ed tech partners. Hass also addresses the potential disruption of accreditation reforms by the current administration and stresses the importance of ethics and bottom-up innovation in CIC institutions. She encourages provosts to dream and envision new educational models.Takeaways- Provosts must be intelligently engaged in AI discussions to ensure institutional values are not compromised by technological adoption.- The nimbleness of independent colleges means individual faculty or staff can drive meaningful, campus-wide change.- The current administration's interest in reshaping accreditation poses real risks, and provosts must be prepared to advocate collectively.- As presidencies become more outward-facing, provosts are increasingly the primary defenders and shapers of academic mission and culture.- Provosts are uniquely positioned to envision bold new educational models and should embrace that creative, forward-looking responsibility.

5. Mission, Culture, and the Art of Leading Change: A Conversation with David J. Dausey
In this conversation, EdUp Provost host Dr. Gregor Thuswaldner sits down with Dr. David Dausey, Provost and President-Elect at Duquesne University, for a rich and candid discussion about mission-driven leadership, the evolving role of the provost, and the mindset required to navigate transformative change in higher education. Dr. Dausey shares his deeply held conviction that fidelity to institutional mission must be the provost's north star, while emphasizing that social and emotional intelligence are equally essential leadership tools. He reflects on the importance of listening — whether conducting a presidential listening tour or receiving critique — and offers practical wisdom for new provosts on the value of patience, process, and taking change one step at a time.Takeaways:• The most important quality of a provost is an unwavering commitment to the institution's mission; it must be lived, not just stated.• Technical expertise matters, but the ability to understand and respond to the lived realities of others is what truly defines effective academic leadership.• Whether embarking on a new role or receiving criticism, intentional listening is the foundation of servant leadership.• Culture change takes time; start one piece at a time and resist the urge to do everything at once.• How decisions are made shapes how people experience them, even when the result is the same.
