Student blogs offer new recruiting tool Robert Brumfield, eSchool News
In the never-ending drive to attract new students to their institutions, some college and university officials now look to student blogs as a fresh addition to the recruiter's toolbox.... Recruiters, alumni associations, and other university departments are finding that student blogs offer a glimpse at college life largely unavailable through the down-to-business language typically employed by campus web sites to inform students and parents about classes offered in the fall semester--or the date by which textbooks must be returned to receive a full refund.
Comments:
Since the military keeps missing their recruitment goals maybe they could use student blogs to bolster their ranks. What hot-blooded teenage boy wouldn't jump at the chance to play Army for real once they could get a taste of it through the blogs.
