Thoroughly reimagined sixth edition of this comprehensive, yet light-hearted, guide to
college life, updated and edited by Alison Leigh Cowan, formerly of the New York
Times. Sixth edition contains roughly 1,000 pieces of straight-talking advice from
students and recent graduates fresh off the experience at more than 200 campuses.
These young voices, who represent the ever-shifting, kaleidoscopic spectrum of
college life, are the ones that readers hear most from in the book – a point of
distinction between this classic how-to and the many guides that are squawk boxes
for lone experts.The hundreds of ordinary “experts” who participated in the making of
this down-to-earth guide are all the readers' peers, and there is little they have not
seen or experienced among them. So, it’s easy for incoming freshmen to find out just
what works, what doesn’t work, and when people disagree about the best way
forward. This book lets you hear all sides. In addition to revisiting all the mainstay
topics covered by past editions over 20 chapters – such as, getting along with
roommates, picking classes, dealing with family – this 6th edition contains an all-new
chapter called Coping aimed at helping students deal with stress. It also features
brand-new, highly topical sections that delve into:- hidden hazards of free speech on
campus- the many ways the dating scene has changed - how to spot hazing - study
aids to be avoided and- obtaining accommodations if you have a disability Freshmen
will also benefit from practical advice found in this edition on a range of topics
including: What to Do About the Dining Hall Blues,Ways to Ship, not Shlep, The Best-
Paying Campus Job You'll Ever Have,What to Do and Not to Do If Arrested and
Surprising Swag You Never Knew You Could Get for Free From the Library.'' (To wit:
everything from sleds and shovels for outdoor play to suits and ties for interviews.
Even loaner sessions with therapy dogs can be had.) New illustrations introducing
each chapter and throughout the margins provide wit and whimsy along the way,

has appeared in the New Yorker. Those heading off to college would be well-served
just memorizing the book's cheeky list of sure-fire excuses to use when they are late
for class.
