Best book ever on how to prepare students for college

I'm not always a Jay Matthews fan, but the book he discusses here looks like it's worth a read.


Best book ever on how to prepare students for college: "We have had blue ribbon commissions, congressional committees, corporate roundtables, university consortiums and dozens of non-profit organizations struggle with the central question of American education: How do we prepare students for success in college? The written output of these groups numbers tens of thousands of pages, at least. And yet I just got more useful information from a 198-page book written by an unknown assistant professor of education at Seton Hall University than I ever learned from those stacks of well-intentioned reports.
