"Where should I go to College?" Dear Babs, CampusCompare's nationally syndicated advice column, has the answer.
"Dear Babs", CampusCompare's advice column for the college search, provides millions of college-bound students with the advice on navigating the tricky college selection process.
BOSTON, MA, June 17, 2009 /High School PR News/ -- First there came Dear Abby, Ann Landers, Miss Manners. In September 2008, Dear Babs joined their ranks as the new diva of the advice column. "Dear Babs", CampusCompare's advice column for the college search, provides millions of college-bound students with the advice on navigating the tricky college selection process.
"Dear Babs" is a nationally syndicated column via the McClatchy network of newspapers reaching a combined distribution in the millions. From the Kansas City Star to the Sacramento Bee, "Dear Babs" answers questions from high school students and parents on finding a best-fit college. Her responses are always informed, honest, and timely—with a bit of wit to boot.
What does "best-fit college" mean, exactly? According to Babs, "Your best-fit college is the college that works with your personality—it's the kind of place you could see yourself living for four years, and not getting bored. It challenges and excites you, as well as providing you with emotional and academic support throughout your undergrad."
"Dear Babs" not only provides support for stressed out students, but for their equally-anxious parents. Her advice sets the rumors on college admissions straight to help parents focus on what's best for their children. Whether offering financial-aid info or moral support, Babs understands parents' concerns for their children's education and helps them find the resources to make their son or daughter's future a success.
Babs also stands out for supporting her reader's interests beyond the classroom. Websites devoted to such passions as fashion and football , like www.sportsag.com and www.fashionaddict.com are publishing the Dear Babs column, including tips for getting into (or onto) the field. Babs understands that there is no guarantee to a good job in this downturn economy, and the key to success is to do well in a subject—any subject—that interests you.
