Why is the college discovery process so broken? Our solution (1st pitch)George K
Education is at the core of who we are. Our closest friends and our future career path by enlarge depend on where we go to college, right? If the stakes are so high why should the burden of search be on high school students? With so much white noise how can teenagers find out what school matches their potential? Today students are making arguably the most important decision in their life based on US New rankings and perceptions of friends and family, leading to stress for students today and wasted potential down the line.
There has to be a better way. We want to change the way high school students interact with universities by enabling colleges to reach out directly to students based on their achievements, interests, and preferences

How Social Media Influences Institutional Investors LinkedIn
Learn from our distinguished panel of speakers from J.P. Morgan Asset Management, Greenwich Associates, and LinkedIn, as we discuss:
- New research into how social media is being leveraged during the institutional investing process.
- Implications for institutional investing and how asset managers are adapting to these trends.
- Best practices and key opportunities to differentiate your brand and influence institutional investors on social media.
This year’s results delve into how recruiters are
leveraging social recruiting in addition to whether or
not they are using it. Much like marketers, recruiters
use social networks as part of a multi-channel strategy
to find leads and nurture them to hire. Just as the days
of “rented attention” and “one size fits all” campaigns
are over in the marketing and advertising worlds,
recruiters now focus on building their own talent pool
and appealing to candidates’ individual preferences.
Social Recruiting 2013 Survey Results via JobVite
• 94% of recruiters use or plan to use social media in their recruitment efforts • 78% of recruiters have made a hire through social media
This year’s results delve into how recruiters are leveraging social recruiting in addition to whether or not they are using it.

Just as the days of “rented attention” and “one size fits all” campaigns are over in the marketing and advertising worlds, recruiters now focus on building their own talent pool and appealing to candidates’ individual preferences.
The best candidates are always “shopping” for a new job and have more information at their fingertips than ever before. To succeed in today’s fiercely competitive market, recruiters have started to use a marketer’s approach to find and cultivate the top talent:
• Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn are still the recruiters social networks of choice – but they have company. Blogs, Youtube, GitHub, Stackoverflow, Yammer, and Instagram have emerged as channels recruiters also use to source talent. • Across social channels, recruiters look for professional experience, tenure, hard skills, industry-related voice and cultural fit as part of the hiring process. • LinkedIn remains the king of searching (96%), contacting (94%), vetting (92%) and keeping tab of candidates (93%).
Recruiters are also placing increasing importance on candidates’ social profiles:
• 42% have reconsidered a candidate based on content viewed in a social profile, leading to both positive and negative re-assessments • Profanity, and grammar and punctuation errors trigger negative reactions among recruiters over 60% of the time
Social recruiting is not just a way of finding the best cultural fit – there are also significant bottom line benefits
• Recruiters reported a jump in time to hire (33%), the quality of candidates (49%) and the quantity of candidates (43%) • 60% of recruiters estimate the value of social media hires as greater than $20k/year. 20% estimate the value of social media hires as greater than $90k/year.
Finally, developments in social recruiting exist in the context of a highly competitive employee market:
• Only 1.5% of recruiters expect the hiring environment to get less competitive in the coming year • 68% of companies offer referral compensation to gain a competitive edge in hiring.

Reaching Non-Traditional Students: Where, When, and HowHobsons EMS
A key part of the enrollment process for the non-traditional students is knowing where, when and how to reach them. Efficiently generating quality leads is the first step you need to master when trying to reach enrollment goals for your programs.
The non-traditional student is very different from the traditional student and the efforts necessary to peak their interest also varies greatly.
In this month’s #breakthru webinar we will be taking you through best practices on how to reach the non-traditional audience in the digital environment.
During this hour webinar you will learn where to place your time and money, what your campaigns need to do to stand out, how to evaluate success, and how to optimize and improve upon your efforts in reaching the non-traditional student.

Apple's September 9th event has been described as historic before it's even started. At this big launch event, Apple announced iPhone 6, iPhone 6 plus, Apple iWatch, Apple Pay, iPhone upgrades and more...
This is Prateek Mishra from Ramaiah institute of management studies, Bangalore and the following presentation gives an overview of launch of a hypothetical product into the market.
26 topline marketing strategies to launch a new brand, product or service. Includes a 1 page summary outlining the pros and cons of each approach as well as best in class examples. Designed as flashcards so that it can be printed out to help stimulate brainstorm sessions.
Richy Damraur from Zinch discusses the recent findings of a survey conducted of over 500 prospective and current graduate students. The results will help you understand how students prefer to be communicated with, how frequently they prefer be communicated with and through which medium(s). Zinch will also discuss a variety of new and exciting avenues to find and engage with prospective graduate students.
How students search for and decide for a university has grown more complex: the search process and the consulted channels have multiplied.
UNIspotter conducted a study among 86 students (business; interested in pursuing a Master) to observe how they search, where they search and what they search for when deciding for a study program.
We discovered that the search process follows a pattern (4 stages):
- Browse universities (50+ programs)
- Narrow down the option (15-25 programs)
- Detailed Research: Compare (10 programs)
- (Pre-)Decision: Apply (on average 5 programs)
However, not all the touch points are considered equally relevant for the final decision.
The university of the future needs to attract top-talent in a rapidly changing market and needs to manage the information that impacts the future students' decision.
But: most of the time you are not even aware that potential students make decisions about you. Google calls this "The Zero Moment of Truth" - customers researching about you on the internet before they decide to buy a service.
How do students consider university rankings, accreditations, search engines, online portals and the direct contact with universities?
We want to provide you an insight into what we found out.
And input on how you can identify the customer journey your students have had as well as a check-list on how to find room for improvement.
We would be very happy to have your feedback about it!

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
