Book Reviews of Student Success in College: Creating Conditions That Matter

Book Review: Great Content Fit for a Layperson
Summary: 5 Stars

Having just created a team and diversity skills primer designed for college freshmen, this book provided a highly valuable, thorough and well-researched examination of cultural attributes that enable student success. Aside from providing foundational insights into the higher education market for a relative novice, this book is rich in example, a key ingredient to the creative process. Experienced educators will surely find many great "seeds of change" in their quest to improve student persistence.
