In the latest episode of The Key podcast, Inside Higher Ed's Sara Custer and Katherine Knott discuss the early actions of the second Trump administration and their implications for higher education.

They also highlight the anticipated pushback from the sector, primarily through lawsuits, and reflect on surprising developments in leadership appointments within the Department of Education.
