College Rankings are an Illusion

Show notes
College rankings are an illusion. Despite the power they hold in popular culture, they were made up by a magazine that was going out of business. But not all colleges play the rankings game. In fact, Pitzer College won the rankings game by not playing it and telling their own story. Learn how students can do the same to reach their goals for college and beyond.
