I’m off to the IECA Conference in my former home of Boston. I will be seeing a number of universities and these include Smith, Wellesley, Olin School of Engineering, Boston University, Tufts, Brandeis, Bentley and later on Dartmouth. No doubt, I will have lots of news and photos to share with all my students. I also expect to gain some insights into the new COALITION Application which is a brand new platform for working on applications which is being unveiled this month. The good news is that students as young as in grade 9 can begin working within the Coalition Portfolio section, keeping track of their activities, awards, artwork, projects and best pieces of writing for use at time of application. More on this when I get back!
