Before Intel went after the low end of the chip market, Andy Grove taught some 2,000 managers the theory behind it.

Could other colleges copy Unity's playbook?
@MelikPeter says the process is transferable. Surviving it is the hard part: "It is ironic that people ask me how I survived it more so than how I did it."

Two jobs for boards, says @michaelbhorn: hire a president who wants to win at a few things, and back them when it gets ugly.

Families think about the cost of college. Colleges think about financial aid. Should @USC attack the cost side?
"I think they do," says Beong-Soo Kim. USC's smallest tuition increase in about 40 years was a signal that "the sticker price matters."

There are far more students looking for internships than there are internships. So @USCViterbi now requires every student to complete a practicum.

"Experiential learning" risks becoming a buzz phrase. @michaelbhorn asked Beong-Soo Kim what @USC means by it.
