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.
