Crystal Balls...None to Be Found |
|
If an acclaimed soothsayer could stand before us and foresee exactly what will happen with higher education in the future, we would be golden.
But, we don't know any, so we turned to some experts in the field instead. And while no one can actually "predict" which changes will be permanent and which will disappear, they all relied on knowledge and research.
Each one had a different take on things, so all bases were covered.

Turn to This Checklist Before Summer Melts Into Fall
Many parents are biting their tongues as they watch their rising juniors and seniors while away the summer hours...doing "nothing." Before you explode, take a look at this list from a mom of six.
Her advice includes a good mix of productive work and play. So, you can quit fretting and both you and your kid can enjoy what remains of the summer. |

Whats Up Ahead on The Road...
This week, we are not looking "ahead," we're looking back...at a recent Facebook Live we did with John Fees, the cofounder of GradGuard.
Yeah, yeah, we know talking about insurance is a big yawn, but our discussion with John was "surprisingly" quite informative. So much so, that we're linking to it here, just so you can watch it.
If you're sending your child off to college, if your child has underlying health conditions, if your child will be renting an off-campus apartment with others, you need to do more than just think about insurance. |
