White MEMO: COLLEGE RANKINGS DON’T MATTER. This claim might sound crazy, but it’s true: Research shows that where you go to school makes little difference to future financial success or quality of life—personal qualities such as ambition, perseverance, and a sense of purpose are all more important.

Now, in It’s the Student, Not the College, she shows how to avoid unrepayable debt and set yourself up to grow, excel, and enjoy yourself at any school.

Plus . . . Why what you do in school counts more than where you go 14 surefire ways to develop your Success Profile as a student and beyond Criteria to consider when choosing a college How to find a good fit for your family’s finances And tips for graduating career-ready and landing a great first job. Expensive, elite colleges have too much sway over the minds and bank accounts of students and parents. It’s the Student, Not the College breaks that stranglehold—and reveals the real secrets of success.

Les universités sont des institutions européennes par excellence. Si l'on est généralement conscient qu'elles ont une longue histoire, on connaît moins la valeur de leur patrimoine: l'expérience accumulée et l'importante culture matérielle transmises de génération en génération, ainsi que le rôle de ce patrimoine aujourd'hui. Les auteurs explorent le patrimoine matériel et intellectuel des universités dans toute sa diversité, et la manière dont il s'est transmis dans les pays d'Europe. Le but est de souligner le rôle clé que jouent les universités dans le patrimoine culturel de l'Europe et de les encourager à coopérer au niveau européen. Les auteurs, issus d'une quinzaine d'institutions, travaillent dans le domaine de la gestion et de la préservation du patrimoine des universités.
