  • Underrated A+ Colleges and Universities
    Underrated A+ Colleges and Universities These are colleges and universities that are not quite “tip of the tongue” schools but are generally regarded as among the best educations in the United States, and are certainly well known to national companies and graduate schools. Some of these schools may not be as “front end” selective as an Ivy or Ivy-Like institution, but don’t confuse selectivity with the educational delivery product. Some schools are moderately selective for a variety of reasons (geography, age, size) but still retain A+ level faculty resources, classroom instruction, and top end exit oriented processes (getting a Job or getting into graduate school). Remember, college is often what YOU make of it and not necessarily what others think your experience should be.

    Please join us at the 2018 New England Newspaper Convention as we honor the newest members of the New England Newspaper Hall of Fame Friday, February 23, 2018 ~ Boston Renaissance Waterfront Hotel 6:30 p.m. Cocktails ~ 7:00 p.m. Dinner and Induction Ceremony 2018 Inductees WILLIAM T. CLEW Bill Clew has been a reporter, editor, manager and mentor at Central Massachusetts newspapers for more than 60 years. He worked at the Telegram & Gazette for 37 years before joining the Catholic Free Press in Worcester in 1991. At age 88, he still works there several days a week as a contributing editor. Bill embodies the qualities we seek and applaud in journalists – a curiosity about people and events; an ability to listen, a simple, unwavering dedication to revealing truth; courage. Bill hired and trained legions of journalists who work around the country, his influence reaching far, far beyond his own fine work reporting and editing. He was kind, yet tough, he demanded accuracy and thoroughness from his staff, held to extremely high standards, expecting all to respect reporting as a higher calling, because he did. TIMOTHY COTTER Tim Cotter’s 38-year journalism career has been spent entirely in New England. He began his career with a string of weeklies in southern Rhode Island, and was hired at The Day in New London, Conn. in 1989. Ten years ago he was named as The Day’s managing editor. In those 10 years, the paper has been recognized as the New England Newspaper Association’s Newspaper of the Year eight times.
