Watching television the other night, I learned that Brenda Walsh is now moonlighting as a medical technician.  Or was it a crime scene investigator?  Either way she was wearing a white coat and glasses and it seems she’s come a long way from The Peach Pit.

These days Shannon Doherty is hawking a website called the Education Connection, which for a fee, will tell you which one of the thousands of on-line degree programs available on the internet, best suits you.  As New Yorkers, we are bombarded daily with the aggressive ad campaigns that on-line universities have taken to the subways and buses.  It’s a smart way to catch the attention of millions commuting to work, who more likely than not, feel some sort of dissatisfaction with their current employment.  Hopefully Doherty will not match the degree hopefuls with the schools that Garvin of Brooklyn or Nicolle of Queens chose.

Ever wonder what a successful attorney does with his down time? Model turned mogul, Christopher Riano, CEO of The Riano Group LLC. lends his expertise to his alma mater. Fiercely passionate about Columbia University, Constitutional Law, and higher education in general, Mr. Riano has created a unique course being offered this summer that delves into the intricacies of how Constitutional Law unfolds daily on college campuses across the nation. It can often seem like institutions of higher education are above the law. Any enterprise that supports such a dense group of informed minds can appear to have all the answers. Upon closer examination, most universities are profoundly and actively entangled in some of the most controversial aspects of the American Constitution.
