Students Looking to Social Networks for University Recommendations

10 10 2007

From The Australian:

TODAY’S students will be tomorrow’s university recruiting agents on the social web, Swinburne University of Technology vice-chancellor Ian Young has predicted. “Prospective students are getting more and more information on universities from sites like Facebook,” he said. “In the future, existing students in some respect will become recruiting agents for universities.”

Damn right.  They’ll be searching blogs for information about potential courses, too!
