The $9,000 Bachelor's Degree and other Bold Innovations with SUU President Scott Wyatt

<p><strong>We are very excited about this final episode of season 2 wherein we speak with a highly innovative and wise leader—</strong><a href="https://www.suu.edu/president/about.html"><strong>Scott L. Wyatt</strong></a><strong>—who serves as the 16th president of Southern Utah University. &nbsp;You may have heard about Wyatt recently—he and his team have just launched the $9,000 bachelor’s degree. What many people don’t know is that this is one of a steady stream of innovations that Wyatt has led during his time at SUU. During our wide ranging conversation we talk about innovation, why it is so hard to innovate in higher ed and what he thinks we all need to be doing right now to remain relevant and competitive. &nbsp;Wyatt is an American attorney, politician, two-time college president and a former member of the Utah State Legislature. &nbsp;Effective August 15, 2021, President Wyatt will assume the new position of Senior Executive Director of Statewide Online Education within the Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education, where he will run Utah’s new system-wide approach to online higher ed programming.</strong></p>
