St. Olaf's 'ROI' page gains traction


St. Olaf's newly launched page that outlines employment information for the Class of 2011, The Return on Investing in a St. Olaf Education, has attracted attention from theChronicle of Higher Education and a blog featured on CBS MoneyWatch called The College Solution.

"Late last month St. Olaf College unveiled what is perhaps the most comprehensive Web site created by a college that attempts to answer the return-on-investment question," writes Jeff Selingo in Next, a Chronicle blog. And on her College Solution blog, Lynn O'Shaughnessy calls St. Olaf "trailblazing" for posting "amazingly detailed employment information for all to see.

"Clearly what St. Olaf is doing is making the case for a liberal arts degree," writes O'Shaughnessy. "I agree with the liberal arts supporters at St. Olaf and elsewhere who argue that the liberal arts are relevant in today’s job market. Employers are always going to need graduates that think and reason critically and can write cogently."

  1. Good day! This is kind of off topic but I need some guidance from an established blog.
    Is it difficult to set up your own blog? I'm not very
    techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick.
    I'm thinking about setting up my own but I'm not sure
    where to start. Do you have any tips or suggestions?
