Rebranding Harvard

Article Abstract:

American universities are becoming increasingly promotionalized, a process that appears in the opening up of the university to outside advertising, in all the impression management associated with student and professorial careers, as well as in the competition of the institutions with each other. Harvard University's brand-consciousness in the early years of the 21st century, led to its undergoing this 'rebranding' or repositioning process through a series of modifications that capitalize on the Harvard name.

The global standard of the university is determined in modern times by various benchmarking exercises that center on research and its outcomes.
