It's easier than ever to #VisitMBU! The Shenandoah Valley Regional Airport now offers daily flights to and from D.C. and Chicago! ✈ https://t.co/lP1Qd9pRsu
Thanks for sharing, Sara! It’s important to bring the classroom to the incarcerated. This technology is a great way to bring education to those who can’t be in the classroom setting #ED657 https://t.co/ZneMVhMO7F
I think this is a great start for colleges and universities. We need to work to make college more affordable. These free academic resources are one less stressor on a college student. Do you think this bill will help higher education institutions? #ED657 https://t.co/xyjYXimeSH
The governor of Virginia has approved a bill requiring all public higher education institutions in the state to take steps to adopt open educational resources -- freely accessible and openly copyrighted educational materials https://t.co/1zJ2nmB727 #OER
@surfacefa1292 I personally think that social media is a great tool for study abroad trips. Students should still feel connected to their college or university even when they are thousands of miles away #ED657
Interesting read. I especially loved that counselors love when they read about low-income students who are accepted into colleges of their choice because it’s important to look at everybody as a whole regardless. #ED657 https://t.co/PSid86LU39
This is very interesting. I think Facebook is a great tool to use. Do you think that Facebook is more attractive for the younger or older crowd? #ED657 https://t.co/q1sGj2HSXr
I choose Facebook in my opinion. I’m currently looking at doctoral programs and I’ve checked a few schools out through Facebook because of the ads that are available when I scroll down my newsfeed. Ex UVa, Vanderbilt #ED657 https://t.co/kW7lZ5vwa8

I wanted to see the differences. This article, and others I've read, seem to imply that it's mostly emphasis. This didn't mention it but the President doesn't send FB messages. #ED657
Should we expect to see a lot more admissions acceptance recorded every year? This article was very interesting, I can see both sides of the fence #ED657

Interesting, though I have to say you have to spend a lot more money to bring only a fair amount of students in. Do you agree? #ED657 https://t.co/0JRFfTakB7
Strayer University restarts its campus expansion amid growing enrollment, federal deregulation & increased demand for skilled workers https://t.co/NSL0NgjPLp
After talking with @lostale1986 I thought of a question in regards to admission into a school. Do you think we should look solely at grades, or scores, or take a holistic approach? #ED657
@lostale1986 That’s a great point, and I see what you’re talking about. I don’t agree that we solely need to look at scores to assess a student. It’s important to have a holistic approach
@lostale1986@megangsm I agree, Andreina. I think in general when a professional is using social media in a place they work, said professional needs to be careful what they post. Social media platforms aren’t private unless you make them private. A prospective student can see anything that is posted
Very interesting. In college I always took 18 credits. I was an education major. Do you think everyone should take at least 15 credits or just certain majors? #ED657 https://t.co/6naRnLjULY
Texas A&M University at San Antonio pushes students to earn 15 credits a semester -- a task that may not be easy when many have responsibilities at home https://t.co/OTvvEzWIk5
