Here are your Daily Links, tidbits from around the web on issues pertinent to graduate students.
- The big news today seems to be that rates of international applications for U.S. grad schools are down. Way down in some cases.
- Have you been hearing a lot about "social entrepreneurship" at Brown recently? The Chronicle is on the case.
- Following up on that automated essay grading item from the other day, Inside Higher Ed's Jane Robbins has an interesting take.
- I feel like I shouldn't even honor this with a link, as I believe rankings to be way overrated (see what I did there?), but here they are, the newly released U.S. News and World Report's 2014 rankings for Social Sciences and Humanities graduate programs. Go ahead, you can look.
And I'll finish things off with two quick event reminders:
- The Ivy Film Festival is back this week. Take advantage of it!
- And, of course, hope to see you at GSC happy hour, this Thursday 7-9 at the English Cellar. Show up early for free drinks and apps, and then head over later to the RISD grad open studios.
