Liza Jean MiezejeskiBefore moving to Europe, I didn't realize how much of my thinking about the world was from a US-centric perspective. Liza Jean MiezejeskiI had originally intended to complete the three-year college program in Prague and then return to the US. In January, I founded Skola, a startup that supports US students planning to relocate to Europe for college. I also started a TikTok account where I create content about moving abroad and international studies. When I started my bachelor's in Prague, tuition fees cost around $6,500 a year, although the fees have increased since.

Kim Mulkey, the coach of defending national champion LSU, has agreed to a 10-year contract worth about $32 million that will set a new mark for the richest coaching contract in women's college basketball, according to a person with knowledge of the deal. The deal also still needs approval from the LSU Board of Supervisors, who are scheduled to vote on it Friday. The Hall of Fame coach has been at LSU for two seasons, during which she has taken a program that missed the NCAA Tournament three seasons ago and elevated it to the pinnacle of its sport. It was her fourth national title as a head coach — the first three coming at Baylor, where she coached from 2000 to 2021. Her record at LSU in two seasons combined is 50-8, with NCAA Tournament appearances both years.
