    Absolutely! Universities and colleges should be focusing on developing educational courses, certificates, and other courses for all aspects of the cannabis industry. Additionally, institutions of higher education should also engage in cannabis research to further the science and evidence base. Academics have been prohibited from educating and researching cannabis due to being illegal at the Federal level. With a robust medical and adult-use cannabis industry here in Massachusetts coupled with over 120 institutions of higher education, we have tremendous opportunity here!

    The industry is clearly here to stay so the education system (public and private) should educate people on how to make a career out of it not unlike any other business.
