itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Why is President Rick Bailey sitting in an electric Volkswagen van on a video set at SOU&#8217;s Digital Media Center? It&#8217;s what his January video message is all about: partnerships. In this case, SOU&#8217;s partnership with Lithia Motors and its GreenCars division &#8211; the VW ID. Buzz electric bus is on loan to the university, part of an historic gift that created the Lithia &amp; Driveway Scholarship program, the SOU Institute for Applied Sustainability and much more. President Bailey says that partnership has had &#8220;direct impact in the community and university and statewide.&#8221; He also shares during this month&#8217;s video that he was a first-generation college student, and receiving college informational packets while he was in high school helped reinforce the idea that he was college material. Fast-forward to present day and SOU has forged data-sharing partnerships with 10 school districts around the state and region, giving SOU the opportunity to share information and encourage students to pursue their college aspirations. &#8220;That&#8217;s an example of a partnership where the more we get students into colleges in the state, the more everyone wins,&#8221; he says.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='av-social-sharing-box av-smixg2-94289e992bcfd0fb69085cfc37d8e49d av-social-sharing-box-default  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_textblock

President Rick Bailey sitting in an electric Volkswagen van on a video set at SOU&#8217;s Digital Media Center? It&#8217;s what his January video message is all about: partnerships. In this case, SOU&#8217;s partnership with Lithia Motors and its GreenCars division &#8211; the VW ID. Buzz electric bus is on loan to the university, part of an historic gift that created the Lithia &amp; Driveway Scholarship program, the SOU Institute for Applied Sustainability and much more. President Bailey says that partnership has had &#8220;direct impact in the community and university and statewide. He also shares during this month&#8217;s video that he was a first-generation college student, and receiving college informational packets while he was in high schoo helped reinforced the idea that he was college material. Fast-forward to present day and SOU has forged data-sharing partnerships with 10 school districts around the state and region, giving SOU the opportunity to share information and encourage students to pursue their college aspirations. &#8220;That&#8217;s an example of a partnership where the more we get students into colleges in the state, the more everyone wins,&#8221; he says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":7639,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"aside","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[88,87],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7634","post","type-post","status-publish","format-aside","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-message-from-the-president","category-video","post_format-post-format-aside"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v26.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Watch: SOU President Rick Bailey\u2019s January 2025 Update - SOU Office of the President<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Why is President Rick Bailey sitting in an electric Volkswagen van on a video set at SOU&#039;s Digital Media Center?
