Titles Are Hard, but College Doesn't Have to Be is a book written to help you navigate and make sense of the sometimes challenging period of time that is your freshman year of college. At the same time, though, people take life too seriously. So to help ease the mood, Titles Are Hard approaches the subject of going to college with a tone of general lightheartedness. The pages of this book are filled with insight acquired through real-life experience, discussion, and reflection of how to effectively and successfully make your way through your early time in college while also peppering in a joke here or there to help keep you reminded that this isn't a textbook, and it is possible to enjoy reading. The book is split up into three major sections. The first is about how to successfully adapt and live in the new environment that going off to college leads you to because living effectively is pretty important to being able to do anything else effectively. The second section focuses on the academic portion of college. Not everyone took high school seriously, but college offers a chance to realign how schoolwork is handled. Some helpful tips and nudges may just be the thing to set yourself on the right track. Finally the last section of the book is meant to cover all the nooks and crannies that stray outside of simply living and studying. By the book's end, the hope of the author is that you, the reader, feels a bit more equipped as well as encouraged to be able to go out and make the most of that first year of working toward your degree. So whether you pick up and give this book a read or pass on by, just keep in mind that summing up a book within a small title can be hard, but going off to college doesn't have to be.

An NPR Favorite Book of the Year “Breaks new ground on social and educational questions of great import.” —Washington Post “An essential work, humane and candid, that challenges and expands our understanding of the lives of contemporary college students.” —Paul Tough, author of Helping Children Succeed “Eye-opening...Brings home the pain and reality of on-campus poverty and puts the blame squarely on elite institutions.” —Washington Post “Jack’s investigation redirects attention from the matter of access to the matter of inclusion...His book challenges universities to support the diversity they indulge in advertising.” —New Yorker The Ivy League looks different than it used to. College presidents and deans of admission have opened their doors—and their coffers—to support a more diverse student body. But is it enough just to admit these students? In this bracing exposé, Anthony Jack shows that many students’ struggles continue long after they’ve settled in their dorms. Admission, they quickly learn, is not the same as acceptance. This powerfully argued book documents how university policies and campus culture can exacerbate preexisting inequalities and reveals why some students are harder hit than others.
