Subject: The Edge: What Does It Mean if a Big Prize for Student Success Has No Winner?
I’m Goldie Blumenstyk, a senior writer at
The Chronicle covering innovation in and around academe. Here’s what I’m thinking about this week.

I never thought it would take more than six years to report to you the results of the College Success Prize I first covered in 2015. The delay has a little to do with more-pressing news and, to be candid, my own failure to consistently and insistently follow up. But another part of the story is an unexpected conclusion to this experiment in identifying new ways to promote disadvantaged students’ progress in college.
