In this inaugural episode of Unfixed: AI and Higher Education, hosts Nik Janos and Zach Justus introduce a new podcast that explores how generative AI is accelerating deep structural changes across the university. More than just a classroom tool, AI is transforming admissions, advising, labor, assessment, and even the core mission of higher education.
