The Pendulum - College admissions begin using social networking tools

The Pendulum - College admissions begin using social networking tools: "According to the National Association of College Admissions Counseling, about 60 percent of schools are now using social networking sites in their admissions processes.

One of these schools is Monmouth University in New Jersey, which is giving applicants the choice to submit either a written essay or Facebook video essay. Freshmen at Rutgers University have created blogs directed at prospective students to better educate them about college life. These blogs have proven popular, attracting more than 100 visitors daily."
