Crafting a Class: College Admissions and Financial Aid, 1955-1994
ISBN: 9780691632865 / Angielski / Twarda / 322 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Admissions and financial aid policies at liberal arts colleges have changed dramatically since 1955. Through the 1950s, most colleges in the United States enrolled fewer than 1000 students, nearly all of whom were white.

In the 1960s, as the children of the baby boom reached college age and both federal and institutional financial aid programs expanded, many more students began to apply to college. For the first time, liberal arts colleges were faced with an abundance of applicants, which raised...

Is wellness when life is going our way, or can we experience wellness during the tough times too? How can we align our lives to live well? "I used to think good people automatically live well.

While change and aging are constants, living well during different stages of life takes a mix of risk and intentionality" (Stinson). The Stinson Wellness Model...

American higher education faces some serious problems--but they are not the ones most people think. In this brief and accessible book, two leading experts show that many so-called crises--from the idea that typical students are drowning in debt to the belief that tuition increases are being driven by administrative bloat--are exaggerated or simply false. At the same time, many real problems--from the high dropout rate to inefficient faculty staffing--have received far too little attention. In response, William G. Bowen and Michael S. McPherson provide a frank assessment of the biggest... American higher education faces some serious problems--but they are not the ones most people think.

ISBN: 9780997431018 / Angielski / Miękka / 124 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Education, as we know it in America, is too often characterized as living in a world by itself; unaccountable and unimproved--so different from the Real World. Year after year "Band-Aid" attempts are initiated to improve education and again, year after year, those attempts only produce marginal improvement--if any. Thus, our international ranking is still depicted as "mediocre;" documented by low levels of student learning (inexplicable low college admissions SAT scores), high drop-out rates (8300 high school students per day, yes per day), and disenchanted "stay-outs" (those who survived...
