A revealing look at the college freshman experience, from an insider’s point of view

After fifteen years of teaching anthropology at a large university, Rebekah Nathan had become baffled by her own students. Their strange behavior—eating meals at their desks, not completing reading assignments, remaining silent through class discussions—made her feel as if she were dealing with a completely foreign culture. So Nathan decided to do what anthropologists do when confused by a different culture: Go live with them. She enrolled as a freshman, moved into the dorm, ate in the dining hall, and took a full load of courses. And she came to understand that being a student is a pretty difficult job, too. Her discoveries about contemporary undergraduate culture are surprising and her observations are invaluable, making My Freshman Year essential reading for students, parents, faculty, and anyone interested in educational policy..

The thought of her little sister, Amy, going off to the big world of college frightened Stephanie Edwards. How would she handle registration? What would she do on the first day of classes? How would Amy ever survive being away from home and family? Instead of taking the usual big-sister approach ("Oh, it's great. You'll love it!"). Edwards thought back to the trials and tribulations of her own first year at college, then created what has become the thoughtful gem of a book, 101 Things a College Girl Should Know from a Big Sister Who's Been There. "I tried to think of all the things I wish I'd known when I was a freshman," Stephanie writes her sister. "This list is advice based on some of the things I did wrong, something of the tings I saw my friends do wrong, and some things all first-year students do wrong. I hope you can learn from our mistakes." Edward's enlightening list will help college-bound freshmen everywhere to make that exciting-but-scary transition to campus life. She's full of thoughtful insights on the learning experience, such as Tip No. 2: "Whenever a professor offers office hours, visit him/her. (It makes a good impression.)" or Tip No. 19: "Remember: Frat guys + beer = TROUBLE"; and to help with life away from home, Tip No. 44: "Don't discourage your feelings of homesickness. (They pass.)" From tutoring to tooth care, class registration to roommates, 101 Things A College Girl Should Know has it all. Filled with helpful hints and gentle musings, this little book is a guaranteed hit as a graduation present, send-off gift, or thoughtful gesture for any campus-bound young woman..
