Dear ASHE Members-


On March 10, 2025, ASHE joined  87 organizations and individuals, in partnership with the Postsecondary Data Collaborative (PostsecData), to express our deep concern regarding recent federal actions that undermine critical information systems supporting American education. PostsecData is a nonpartisan coalition of education leaders, researchers, and advocates committed to using high-quality postsecondary data to improve success for all students. We urge Congress to demand transparency regarding abrupt contract cancellations and protect the integrity, privacy, and security of sensitive postsecondary student data.

ASHE Leadership continues to monitor actions at the federal and state levels. We welcome opportunities like this to collaborate with other higher education organizations in taking action and leveraging the expertise of our members.


Sincerely,

Eboni M. Zamani-Gallaher, PhD
