Chad Aldeman on higher ed advertising:
Does it bother anyone else that car commercials tell us about miles per gallon, horsepower, price, etc, but that we get absolutely nothing about quality or cost in our higher education ads?

But many such students may be put off by sticker shock.
CollegeScholarships.org has a neat circular chart depicting the student loan process (HT Jennifer Rotman):
