<p>From this week in the NY Times:</p>

<p><a href=“http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/02/education/02blogs.html?_r=1[/url]”>http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/02/education/02blogs.html?_r=1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>“Dozens of colleges — including Amherst, Bates, Carleton, Colby, Vassar, Wellesley and Yale — are embracing student blogs on their Web sites”</p>

<p>“Pomona has considered having student bloggers, but so far has felt that the risks outweigh the benefits, said Art Rodriguez, senior associate dean of admissions.”</p>

<p>Proud (and not surprised) that Carleton was one of the first to embrace not only blogs but STUDENT produced and unedited admission videos and posted vignettes:</p>
