A brilliant piece of work! The author was able to take an everyday subject and turn it into
a compelling read that I will recommend to all of my students and colleagues.

This is a must read. This book provides a perfect balance between discussion and
real examples. Many themes run through the chapters that are organized around the
complexities facing students.

Coordinator, Offi ce of Undergraduate Research University of Missouri
The book is so accessible that the reader becomes heard, experienced, and championed.
The absorbing chapters are much more than a how to book on coping with college. This
book opens the door to all students by promoting self-evaluation and self-acceptance. The
coaching and tailored academic guidance provided by Dr. Mount has seeded a higher
purpose in me!
