Do students and parents have the information they need to make decisions about what college or university to choose? What criteria do we value in institutions of higher education and what information do we need to make choices about where to attend? Join Campus Progress and the Center for American Progress for a discussion of college and university rankings and the availability of public information on the performance of institutions of higher learning. The discussion will address questions about whether and how institutions of higher education should be ranked, what criteria are important, and whether the public has access to the information that we need to make informed decisions.Join us as we discuss college and university rankings and the availability of relevant information from institutions of higher learning. The panel will feature Kevin Carey, Research and Policy Manager for Education Sector; Paul Glastris, Editor in Chief of The Washington Monthly; and Kenneth Terrell, Assistant Managing Editor of Education, U. S. News and World Report. The panel will be moderated by Cynthia G. Brown, Director of Education Policy at the Center for American Progress.
