A good collection of short stories and poems written by students and professors throughout the generations. I have to read it for the First Year Seminar class for which I will be a Teaching Assistant, and it has proven helpful in coming up with lessons along with the professor I'm working for. She has used it before and I see why. A lot of material in the book many freshman can relate to. And more entries make them think about what having a college education means, what college is really all about, and what you want to take with you when you graduate. I highly recommend it not just for freshman. But all college students.
