Pauvre Ivan Tribble. Not only does Prince Charles have a blog (plus video diary); "about a dozen or so [university] presidents, like Dr. McGuire [president of Washington DC's Trinity College], are vaulting the digital and generational divide and starting their own blogs." Bob Johnson, a consultant to many universities on marketing, said he was mystified that university officials had not generally embraced blogs. Mr. Johnson said student blogs, for example, could be a “hugely effective” recruitment tool, even if they carried the implicit promise — or threat — of uncensored truth, however unflattering. Many thanks to my student, Rachael, for forwarding this to me. |
