Description
How College Works explores the complex relationship between colleges and their students, revealing the surprisingly decisive role that personal relationships play in determining a student's collegiate success.
The authors argue that with limited resources, colleges can still improve the quality of education and help students get more out of college without paying higher tuition. They propose small, inexpensive interventions that yield substantial improvements in educational outcomes.
This book shares the narrative of the student experience, from arrival to graduation, focusing on what it's like to live through college and its lasting impact.
