...randomly selected students at 722 four-year colleges and universities. And the results were surprising. Rather than showing vast differences between schools, the survey highlighted huge disparities in how well each campus was engaging all of its students. For instance, how engineering students scored the quality of on-campus tutoring programs at School A vs. School B may not have varied much. But how School A's engineering students judged those programs may be radically different from how School A's business students do. That finding underscores why using one single number to gauge an entire school is an ineffective...
...students, perhaps they benefit those that employ them even more. While the employers are obliged to provide 30 cents on the dollar to their students, the federal government covers the rest. One-third of the SEO’s jobs fall under this category and include much sought-after on-campus ones, such as library positions...
...although it may be “daunting to locate these laboratory openings,” establishing a centralized database may ease this difficulty. Hammonds also praised Harvard’s Program for Research in Science and Engineering—the 10-week summer residential program for students doing on-campus science research—as a “model for student-faculty interactions” and stressed the need to establish a similar opportunity for the social sciences. In addition, she spoke of the potential for more research openings once the University’s Allston science complex...
...French composer Betsy Jolas to be performed on Thursday night. There will also be a world premiere of an arrangement of Edgard Varèse’s “Amériques” for two pianos and eight hands on Thursday, as well as the first on-campus performance of the Blodgett Artists-in-Residence, the Chiara String Quartet, on Friday. Saturday night’s performance will feature Bruce Brubaker, head of the piano department at the New England Conservatory of Music (NEC), as well as two students who are members of the joint program between...
...structural problem with Harvard’s cultural solution. Their campus lacked a sense of community not because they lacked any program to institute that integration, but because they fundamentally lacked the infrastructure to enable it. Run like a European university, the University of Tokyo offers no on-campus residences. With up to two hours of commuting time and only final exams counting towards grades, students rarely attend class. Without students physically on campus, it’s no wonder that the sense of community is lacking. If the University of Tokyo were really intent on building a community...
