The book also discusses the implications of the findings for research, practice, and public policy. This authoritative and comprehensive analysis of the literature on college impact is required reading for anyone interested in higher education practice, policy, and promise - faculty, administrators, researchers, policy analysts, and decision makers at every level."--BOOK JACKET
