As colleges and universities increase and expand prison education programs, educators work to ensure that instruction matches what's offered on campus.

Every summer, colleges across the country welcome thousands of minors onto their campuses for a variety of residential programs. Today, a growing number of minors identify as transgender and nonbinary, raising unique legal and policy questions that don't apply to adult college students, says guest columnist Isaac Mamaysky, a partner in Potomac Law Group.

ISAs protect students from getting financially steamrolled and help institutions to consider and, hopefully, implement the necessary business model changes they will need to thrive, says guest columnist Richard Price, a research fellow for higher education at the Clayton Christensen Institute.

With the growing popularity of medicinal marijuana and legal hemp-based products such as CBD oils and creams, colleges and universities are seeing the wisdom of preparing students for this burgeoning industry.
