Blog I, Summer B



Facebook Report
           
            You are an admissions officer in a first-tier college.   The finest talent of the nation attends your school.  It just so happens that a large percentage of undergraduates continue their graduate studies at your school.  Unfortunately, it gets harder and harder to let new students into graduate programs because the seats are filled by former undergraduates.
            A respected colleague of yours comes up with a suggestion: A recent article written about party universities reveals your college to be in fifth place out ten schools.  Going from this article, your colleague suggests infiltrating students' Facebook pages for acceptance or denial into the graduate programs.   You like the idea and come up with a document called the Facebook Report.  In this report, you name the students who have inappropriate material on their Facebook pages.  For this blog posting, you are to do the following:

(1)Briefly discuss how you plan to infiltrate a student's Facebook page.

(2)Discuss what things would constitute grounds for rejecting a former student into your graduate program.


(3)Name the four readers of your document, Facebook Report, and how the role they play in perusal of your exposé.  Hint:  the four readers are gatekeeper, primary, secondary, and tertiary.
