Description
Rebekah Nathan's experience as an anthropology professor had left her perplexed by her students' behaviour. To better understand their world, she took a radical step: enrolling as a freshman and immersing herself in the college environment.
By living among her students, Nathan gained valuable insights into the challenges of being a student. Her observations shed light on the difficulties of contemporary undergraduate culture, making this book a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in education policy.
This candid account offers a unique perspective on the realities of university life, one that is both surprising and informative. a worthwhile read for students, parents, faculty, and educators seeking to understand the complexities of higher learning.
