<p>This is roughly college-related but I figured some people here may know…</p>
<p>Which people are known for their work in education, not in teaching but in non-traditional education and in student life and welfare? By this I mean issues such as the race for grades, college choice, career choice, being overloaded with extracurriculars just to enter a prestigious university, anything alternative education related, education policy, etc.</p>
<p>Some examples of people I’m referring to:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>Denise Clark Pope, who wrote Doing School and organizes the Stressed-Out Students Conference</p></li>
<li><p>Loren Pope & Marty O’Connell from Colleges that Change Lives</p></li>
<li><p>Marilee Jones, ex-MIT Dean of Admissions who was in the news recently for lying on her resume - she was a big advocate of choosing colleges for their suitability not their name</p></li>
</ul>
<p>anyone else?</p>
<p>(Also, any suggestions for rephrasing my question are welcome. It’s awkward as it is. -_-)</p>
<p>thanks,</p>
