How to search for colleges?

-
There are lots of ways... google terms like "top 10 engineering schools" and replace engineering with the field of your choice. Other possible searches could be "best universities and colleges for economics" or "accredited business program" and the state of your choice.

Here's a link to the College Board online search engine:

Good luck! Remember, it's not all about a big name. It's about where YOU will learn, grow and develop academically and as a whole unique individual!

Well, this year has been unusual, to say the least. I haven't blogged in a year but on my way to my other blog, couldn't let this day go by without at least a few words. My students have done an AMAZING job putting together their evidence for the Cambridge exams that didn't happen. (Instead of exams, teachers are giving predicted grades which carry much more weight than usual, based on student performance on various tasks and practice papers. Then Cambridge will do some kind of check, do some audits, look at the global responses and make some final decisions.) I am really, really proud of them.

Cambridge did say that schools should predict how students would have done had we had a normal school year! Here's to hoping we'll have school at school in Septe...

Reading Nowadays, I like hotels, at any rate in small doses. But I wasn’t always so relaxed. For years, hotels and restaurants were for me theaters of humiliation. When I was little my parents didn’t have much money, and when we went into cafes the drill was for my Mum (or Dad) to order a pot of tea for two, and maybe a token cake, and my brother and me would be given sips of tea from their cups. While under the table my mother unwrapped a parcel of bread and butter that she’d brought from home, and she smuggled pieces to my brother and me, which we had to eat while the waitress wasn’t looking. The fear of discovery, exposure, and ignominious expulsion stayed with me well into my twenties, and memories of that and similar embarrassments come back whenever I stay in a hotel. I always carry my bags myself – it avoids the tip. It’s not the money. It’s a skill Ive never mastered, like my parents, who started staying in hotels when I was in my teens and at my most thin-skinned. Arrivin...

(also from T. Sarannemekh) Identify the errors. A Habitat in Your Own Backyard Creating a habitat for wildlife is so simple you can do it in your own backyard. All you need to start them are a few things to supply the wildlife with, such like shelter, water and food. THis can be achieved by choosing the proper trees and shrubs for your area that they will provide birds and mammals with both food and shelter. Many birds and animals also depend on flowers for nectar, so be sure to have a wide variety of flowers. The type of plants you use will depend on the each type of wildlife in hour area nad what food sources they need. As for the water you will be need, digging small hole in the ground and filling it with water is sufficient for the most wildlife. You can also put up birdbath, which can be bought at most garden shops. Butterflies like being around mud holes, so make a mess in a corner if ou like. Don't feel you need a large backyard to make sure wildlife visi...
