Ivy league colleges are the way to go for would-be billionaires
Harvard University has the No. 1 spot among the world’s universities for producing billionaires, according to Wealth-X, which ranked business schools in terms of number of billionaire alumni in a survey last January.
Harvard’s M.B.A. program has produced nearly three times more billionaire graduates (64 billionaire graduates so far) than that of Stanford University, which was in second place (23), followed by Columbia University (14), the University of Pennsylvania (12) and the University of Chicago (10).

Micro-credentialing?
Micro-credentialing with digital badges is a quickly growing and innovative area of training. This form of online education is very successful in corporate training to keep employees updated on all new concepts, products, and processes and to recognize their time and effort in learning.
Thinking that the technique could be applied to medical education, I started the Boston University School of Medicine Medical Education Digital Badge Program (BUSM+), an online, digital badge program for health care professionals who want to enhance their understanding of the fundamentals of teaching and learning. The idea program combines the openness of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) with the popularity of scout achievement badges.

Medical School Enrollment Hits Another Record High
Medical schools reported another round of record-breaking application and enrollment totals as college graduates continue to ignore the warnings of senior physicians who recommend that they seek a career in something besides medicine.
First-year student enrollment in U.S. medical schools increased 1.4% to 20,630 in 2015 from 20,343 last year, according to the Association of American Medical Colleges. The AAMC also reported a 6.2% increase in medical school applications to 52,550 this year from 49,480 in 2014.
