In case you haven’t heard, we’re holding our annual College Guide event this Wednesday, October 3rd at the New America Foundation here in DC. We’ll be talking about college and the future of higher education policy.

Stephen Burd will be there to discuss his piece on solving the student debt crisis, Kevin Carey will discuss his reporting on the new Silicon Valley startups that are challenging the traditional university model, and Paul Glastris will discuss our alternative college rankings, including our shot at a best-value measure for college. Most importantly, there will be coffee and food.

You can RSVP here. Hope to see you there!
