A Bit About BIF

Student Experience Lab
Understanding the Hybrid Student Experience | 12.14.2009
The Student Experience Lab was created to help people understand the college student experience.
Students were interviewed from colleges and universities around the country to receive information on the student experience to help the experience lab build and evolve into an informational website.
“The current U.S. post secondary education system, does not deliver, at sufficient scale or at an affordable price, high quality college experience that prepares all students with the skills they need to participate in the 21st century knowledge economy. As a result, too many current and prospective students are left with their educational and economic needs unmet.”
