I had the opportunity to get this book for a highly discounted price for my Kindle, and I couldn't resist. Like all the 'Chicken Soup' series books, it's a mix of material, that varies widely in quality. Some of it is sad, some is inspiring, and some you want to reread again and again. On the reverse, a few of the included stories are rather dumb. But, overall, it's a great book that covers a variety of college scenarios, and will help give you the courage needed to face the frightening new adventure that is college, and manages to give a few helpful tips and pieces of advice at the same time.

I am a College Administrator, and work with students on a daily basis. My work at times can be very draining, and burnout levels are high. It's the human interactions that make my work worthwhile, and these stories are perfect examples of why I continue to do it. I LOVE this book...I'm only swapping it because I have an extra copy!

Whether you are a chicken soup for the Soul reader moving on to a new phase of life, a current college student looking for hope and inspiration, or an alumnus in the mood to reminisce, you will love these stories about unforgettable college experiences and knowledge gained both inside and outside of the classroom.
As with all of the "Chicken Soup" book, these stories are uplifting.

I love the chicken soup books, but have long graduated college. This is a great book for a high school student or someone in their early college careers.
