Top 50 Education Tweets of 2013
Welcome to the fifth installment of the "Best Tweets in Education" series. Each year it gets more and more difficult to choose to top 50, but we buckled down and dug deep to find the 50 best tweets of 2013. Much like in years past (2009, 2010, 2011, 2012), we have included a wide-range of tweets that will cover everything from educational news to silly college student comments.
And while the tone of the tweets in the previous lists have been more on the negative side - we have decided to take a little lighter approach this year. The tweets that we have selected for the 2013 list focuses more on the college experience. From students to professor, these tweets cover it all. So take a moment and enjoy the top education tweets of 2013.
