Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Nobody cares? Really?” For most colleges and universities in the U.S., the answer is a resounding, “Yep, nobody cares!” The demographic bubble of the millennials has burst and, all over the country, institutions are shutting down or merging with neighbors in a desperate attempt to survive. From higher-education alternatives that promise to prepare students for jobs to the big online for-profits that are grabbing an ever-increasing share of the rapidly shrinking pool of prospective students, there’s never been more competition, more pressure, and more noise in the marketplace. So yeah ... nobody cares. But that doesn’t mean it’s time to give up hope. Written by a team of higher-ed marketing veterans, this book offers a new way forward. Called the OpenEDU Model, the tactics laid out here ditch the hype and focus on practical ways you can combine your hard-won marketing experience with cutting-edge technology in order to raise your institution’s profile, attract the students you want, and build a brand that will survive—and thrive—in the toughest higher ed market there’s ever been. They might not care now, but once you put the OpenEDU Model into action, they will.
Book Synopsis Nobody Cares About Your University . . . Yet by : Sean Carton
Download or read book Nobody Cares About Your University . . . Yet written by Sean Carton and published by . This book was released on 1916-12-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Higher education--the philosophy, the business model, and the discipline--is in trouble. Big trouble. Higher education is in a precarious state, and competition is fierce--vicious even--as institutions step on each other to woo a fast-shrinking pool of potential students. Don't think for a second that the new library, recreation center, or residence hall under construction is intended for current students. This competition is, in short, why nobody has written this book, and it's also contributing to the gradual mutation of an industry to a point where some question its viability.Apocalyptic? Perhaps. This book introduces a research-based and practice-tested marketing model that higher education marketers can immediately leverage to beef-up their enrollment marketing efforts without breaking in the bank.
Download or read book Nobody Cares written by Anne T. Donahue and published by ECW Press. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Witty and painfully honest essays about perfection vs. reality: “Hilarious…[an] incredibly distinctive voice.” —Emma Gannon, bestselling author of Olive From the author of the popular newsletter That’s What She Said, Nobody Cares is a candid personal essay collection about work, failure, friendship, and the messy business of being alive in your twenties and thirties. As she shares her hard-won insights from screwing up, growing up, and trying to find her own path, Anne T. Donahue offers all the honesty, laughs, and reassurance of a late-night phone call with your best friend. Whether she’s giving a signature pep talk, railing against summer, or describing her own mental health struggles, Anne reminds us that failure is normal, saying no to things is liberating, and we’re all a bunch of beautiful disasters—and she wouldn’t have it any other way. “Her essays about the less photogenic moments of her life contain their own sort of beauty, the kind that comes from failing and persevering. From breaking down her anxiety disorder to getting in touch with helpful and well-deserved female rage, Donahue is as inspiring as she is droll.” ―Vulture “Frank, funny, observations.” —Cosmopolitan “I don’t know how anyone could read her and not immediately fall in love.” —Scaachi Koul, author of One Day We’ll All Be Dead and None of This Will Matter

Book Synopsis Won’t Lose This Dream by : Andrew Gumbel
Download or read book Won’t Lose This Dream written by Andrew Gumbel and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “heartfelt” (Shelf Awareness) story of how Georgia State University tore up the rulebook for educating lower-income students Published to wide acclaim, Won’t Lose This Dream is the “illuminating” (Times Literary Supplement) story of a public university that has blazed an extraordinary trail for lower-income and first-generation students in downtown Atlanta, the birthplace of the civil rights movement. “A powerful story of institutional transformation” (bestselling author Beverly Daniel Tatum), Won’t Lose This Dream shows how Georgia State University has upended the conventional wisdom about low-income students by harnessing the power of big data to identify and remove obstacles that previously stopped them from graduating—an earthshaking achievement that is reverberating across every college campus today. “Drawing on extensive on-the-ground reporting” (Kirkus Reviews), Andrew Gumbel delivers a thrilling, blow-by-blow account of visionary leaders who overcame fierce resistance, and the remarkable students whose resilience and determination inspired the work at every stage. Their success shows how the promise of social advancement through talent and hard work, the essence of the American dream, can be rekindled even in an age of deep inequalities and divisive politics. “A superb work for anyone interested in higher education” (Library Journal), Won’t Lose This Dream “lays out a persuasive vision for reform” (Publishers Weekly) and a concrete vision of higher ed that works for all Americans.

What's more, kids often send mixed messages: they crave space, but they rely on their parents' advice and assistance. Not surprisingly, it's hard to know when it's appropriate to get involved in your child's life and when it's better to back off.

Book Synopsis Campus Life in the Movies by : John E. Conklin
Download or read book Campus Life in the Movies written by John E. Conklin and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hollywood films have presented audiences with stories of campus life for nearly a century, shaping popular perceptions of our colleges and universities and the students who attend them. These depictions of campus life have even altered the attitudes of the students themselves, serving as both a mirror of and a model for behavior. One can only imagine how many high school seniors enter college today with the hopes of living the proverbial Animal House or PCU Greek experience, or how many have worried over the SAT and college admissions after watching more recent movies like 2004's The Perfect Score. This book explores themes of college life in 681 live-action, theatrically released, feature-length films set in the United States and released from 1915 through 2006, evaluating how these movies both reflected and distorted the reality of undergraduate life. Topics include college admissions, the freshman experience, academic work, professor-student relations, student romance, fraternity and sorority life, sports, political activism, and other extracurricular activities. The book also includes a complete filmography and 66 illustrations.

Book Synopsis Women's Glasnost vs. Naglost by : Tatyana Mamonova
Download or read book Women's Glasnost vs. Naglost written by Tatyana Mamonova and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 1993-11-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yeltsin is certainly not the Sakharov of the Democratic Movement. Russian people sarcastically call his burning the Parliament an October Revolution of 1993. In Women's Glasnost vs. Naglost we finally hear the voices of the Russian women on what it means to be female and Russian in the tumultuous climate that is modern Russia. The founder of the Russian women's movement, Tatyana Mamonova was the first Russian woman exiled from the Soviet Union for publishing the underground samizdat, Woman and Russia. Now lauded as the Simone de Beauvoir of Russia, Mamonova has interviewed 17 Russian women on the subject of the C.A.S. as it relates to glasnost. Women from all walks of life are asked about changes with respect to their roles and expectations as women. Artists, professionals, dissidents, lesbians, doctors, writers, and civil servants tell their stories in candid terms showing that there is still a long road ahead. Revisions and elaborations of speeches delivered on Mamonova's American tours, poetry in her own hand, and line drawings in her own eloquent and prolific style compliment her essays and the women's interviews.
Book Synopsis Matters of Care by : María Puig de la Bellacasa
Download or read book Matters of Care written by María Puig de la Bellacasa and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2017-03-21 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To care can feel good, or it can feel bad. It can do good, it can oppress. But what is care? A moral obligation? A burden? A joy? Is it only human? In Matters of Care, María Puig de la Bellacasa presents a powerful challenge to conventional notions of care, exploring its significance as an ethical and political obligation for thinking in the more than human worlds of technoscience and naturecultures. Matters of Care contests the view that care is something only humans do, and argues for extending to non-humans the consideration of agencies and communities that make the living web of care by considering how care circulates in the natural world. The first of the book’s two parts, “Knowledge Politics,” defines the motivations for expanding the ethico-political meanings of care, focusing on discussions in science and technology that engage with sociotechnical assemblages and objects as lively, politically charged “things.” The second part, “Speculative Ethics in Antiecological Times,” considers everyday ecologies of sustaining and perpetuating life for their potential to transform our entrenched relations to natural worlds as “resources.” From the ethics and politics of care to experiential research on care to feminist science and technology studies, Matters of Care is a singular contribution to an emerging interdisciplinary debate that expands agency beyond the human to ask how our understandings of care must shift if we broaden the world.
