With extremely cold temperatures hitting all over the country, some of us were very excited. Some of us braved the cold to help those in need. And some of us cranked up the space heater, layered on the fleece-lined pants and drank all the warm beverages.
But 2015 is heating up in the higher ed world, so read on!
What’s new this week:
Mary Johnson at Higher One is having a stellar start to the New Year! She posted a piece on her Huffington Post blog, was included in an article for The Fiscal Times, “One Important Gift You Forgot to Give Your Kids,” and secured a quote on page two of “Should You Get a Private College Loan?” for NEA Member Benefits. Go Mary!
As Oregon and Ohio State prepare for a showdown, college football buzz continues at Businessweek with Professor Rhett Brymer of Farmer School of Business and his research on college officials and bias.
