Lindsey Burke: “If I Could Wave a Magic Wand”

ACTA’s chief of staff, Armand Alacbay, interviews Dr. Lindsey Burke, Ph.D., the director of the Center for Education Policy at The Heritage Foundation. Dr. Burke is well known for her role overseeing Heritage’s research and policy work on issues pertaining to higher education reform. In this conversation, she discusses higher ed leadership in light of her recent appointment to the George Mason University Board of Visitors where it’s safe to say, she’ll have ample opportunities to apply her education policy research experience in a practical setting.
