We've Got You Covered.

Parents wonder, "Is college still worth it?"

 

There's a lot to worry about.

 

First, college has gotten so expensive that parents and students both want a well-defined path leading directly to a high-paying job. That kind of thinking makes vocational school seem like a smarter choice.

 

And how would students pursuing a bachelor's degree get the vocational skills they need? It feels like some students are there to watch sports and party.

 

Besides, with AI transforming the economy, will there even be jobs that require a college education?

 

The answer is “Yes!” College is more important than ever, and college skills will be even more essential as AI and robotics automate routine types of working and thinking.

 

But to get the right skills students

must approach college the right way. 

 

College You explores the hidden curriculum of the Liberal Arts, which is leadership training, and explains how students who know how to develop flexible leadership skills that are useful in any career can make more money and go farther in life than students who only focus on a rigid set of vocationally focused skills that may not be a good fit if the economy changes or if different opportunities emerge.

​

Employers are clear on what they are looking for: skills like courage, critical thinking, curiosity, emotional balance, focus, initiative, persistence, problem-solving, resilience, self-regulation, staying calm under pressure, and dozens of others that the Liberal Arts curriculum was designed to nurture.

​

Your authors have 50+ years of experience in higher education, including almost two decades of designing, administering, and teaching classes that help incoming students successfully make the transition to college.​

​

College You is an easy, fun, fast read that students connect with because it is filled with practical tips and cartoon dialogues that make the book feel more like a discussion than a lecture. There is no other college guide like it, and no student should start college without it.

​

While other guides help students survive, College You goes further and helps them thrive.
