ISO27001 vs NIST 800-171

["Davis, Chris" <CDavis () LOURDES EDU>]

Can anyone provide me a quick and dirty compare/contrast between the two?  Which is more appropriate for a higher 
education setting seeking to comply with the various regulatory requirements typically found in higher ed?

Thanks!

Chris
