All the hot topics in higher education are discussed in Paul Tough's recently published book - inequalities in test preparation, test-optional policies, enrollment management, supporting student success, retention issues, and shrinking public budgets to support higher ed.
Though the true beauty of this book lies not in policy discussions, but in the inspiring and hopeful personal narratives Tough tells of students struggling to achieve their dreams in today's American colleges and universities.
