Notebook and staying up to date

I see the notebook as a fluid document. As rules change, we need to be as current as possible. I would imagine it is also important to dispose of dated material.

All schools, for profit or non, should have to disclose placement rate

I think it is terrific that for profit schools have to disclose placement rates. It keeps our eyes on the end results: launching students into the workforce. Ironically, non-profit schools are not held to this standard. It would be interesting to see how not for profit and for profit schools compare in placement rates.

New to Higher Education

I recently changed my entire career path to pursue a dream of mine. I have always desired working for a university. I have been hired as the Director of Admissions, and would appreciate any guidance or advice that will prepare me for my new career.

Transfer of credits

This has been nice to see the exact specifics of transferring credits. As an institution it is easy to say we cannot guarantee that we will accept all credits, but this gives us a chance to prove why.

Social Networking

This has been a good chance for me to see exactly how to handle our Social Networking. This has been a good opportunity.

Accreditataion

One tyhing i have always found perticularly alarming is how some regionally accreditted schools will call our students and bad mouth national accrediatation. This is a practice I feel is detrimental to career colleges. Has anyone else expirennced this and how did they combat it?

Role of Student Services

As we move into more of a blended delivery of classes, online and traditional, what sort of expanded roles/additional services could be offered to better serve our students?

Maximizing Loans just to cover cost of Tuition

This topic seems to be one that is more and more prevalent now than when i wen to college. It seems that college tuition is growing at an astronimical rate, and I am curious as to if others arenoticing this, or just myself? And is this only in career colleges, or across public schools as well?

Being upfront with students

It is very important to make it a practice to be free and clear with prospective and current students. There shouldn't be a sales-like fear of disclosing too much to where you might lose the student. Be confident in your school and its programs, and its benefits to the students, and be honest with them in a matter-of-fact way.
