The Roadmap to Investing in Yourself: The Real Costs of a College
Education, 2nd Edition discusses many of the economic
misconceptions about earning a college degree. While it is widely
believed that attending college in itself guarantees wealth,
thinking of a college degree as a commodity has kept students,
parents, and higher education professionals from understanding the
full range of short-term and long-term costs. This book illustrates
how the promotion of education merely as a commodity comes at a
high price for both the individual and society. Authors Tara
Jabbaar-Gyambrah and Seneca Vaught argue that the idea of
'investment' must shift from a short-sighted view, focusing only on
economic concerns, to a broader and more holistic understanding of
what college costs and what students can expect in return.
