Break out the cupcakes: The Elmhurst University Blog just turned a year old!

Our higher education-focused blog launched in late July of 2018 with “4 Things to Consider When Choosing a Local Graduate School,” and it has been growing ever since.

Along the way, we’ve used this corner of the web to share timely bits of wisdom about graduate school, cyber security and much, much more. A few of our professors have joined in the effort by launching their own series, including teacher leadership expert Deb Meyer and data science guru Jim Kulich.

Join us as we count down our 10 most-viewed posts—and stay with us for fresh insights in the new school year ahead. We promise the blog will be every bit as sweet in its toddler phase.
