Bertram Directions Fall 2010

Post date: 
September 10, 2010

Our fall 2010 edition introduces two new faces to the Bertram team, Bobbi Krein (College Advisory Services) and Ellie Powers (Director of Operations). We also discuss the recent U.S. News & World Report’s list of the Best Colleges of 2010, and give a perspective on how these lists should be interpreted. We highlight our recent invitation from Campus Outreach Services to join experts in college and secondary school admissions in their webinar series, Getting In. Several members of the Bertram advisory team will provide their insights on college admissions, independent day and boarding school options and programs that help teens in crisis. The series begins this fall and continues through spring, 2011. Finally, we remind you of important testing dates for both college and independent school admissions and note some interesting articles on college life, green colleges, how technology is affecting students’ use of textbooks, and the effect a roommate can have on those critical first weeks away from home.... read full issue

The Premier Edition of Bertram Directions was published in November and is directed to those looking for trends and observations in the education world. This issue contains articles about the changing education landscape, advice on how to deal with the stress of school and college applications and visits, important dates that parents and children should have on their calendars, and introductions to the newest members of the Bertram team and to Marcie Swift, a Certified School Psychologist, who has developed a program to help individuals of all ages understand their passions and realize their goals.
