Presidents who blog... a new Canadian entry
Mohawk College of Applied Arts and Technology in Ontario, Canada, is the lastest addition to my list of colleges and universities with presidents who blog. This brings to 17 the list of presidents at my July 1 entry.
At Mohawk, President MaryLynn West-Moynes started her blog in October 2006, although this is the first time a Google search has found it for me. In her latest entry from July 25 she's writing about a new, condensed two-year business program that will run classes from Tuesday through Thursday "to help make life a little easier for our students, especially those with work and family commitments outside the classroom."
She makes it sound much nicer in her blog than what you'd expect to find in a formal press release.
You can review her posts at http://blogs.mohawkcollege.ca/blog/president/
The list should continue to grow. From what I heard at the ACT Enrollment Planners Conference and the eduWeb 2007 conference, at least a few more presidents have serious plans to start blogging soon. Friends have promised to let me know when they debut their new contribution to the mix of marketing messages.
