Each year over a million newly-minted high school graduates enroll
in four-year colleges and universities across the country. They do
so often after a lengthy and almost always stressful selection
process. Faced with growing evidence of declining standards, rising
political correctness and spiraling costs, families feel more
powerless than ever before - and question whether a college degree
is really the key to the American dream. What is a parent to do?
This book provides an answer. Higher education expert Anne Neal
offers families a concise guide to finding the right college.
Rejecting the notion that reputation is everything, this guide
offers insightful chapters on curricula and teaching, campus and
dorm life, freedom of thought and speech, and affordability -
issues that are more and more in the news. Families are given a
handy checklist of questions designed to help them zero in on key
issues of quality and cost to ensure a college program that will
provide the skills and knowledge needed for success after
graduation.
