A Dad Speaks Up



Without a doubt, the college admissions process has become a nail-biting, costly, formidable amalgam of confusion, anxiety, and paranoia over the last decade. The competition is fierce and nothing can be guaranteed. At the end of the day, though, it is probably healthy to take a bird's eye view of this journey with a wide grin accompanying a shaking head. Seriously, it will all work out.

With this in mind, we are pleased to see that one father managed to find the humor in the entire undertaking of getting his son into the "right" school. Andrew Ferguson brings his wit, charm, and newfound knowledge about getting into college in the 21st century to his new book entitled Crazy U.

Unfortunately, the tide has failed to ebb, and the educational shoreline is eroding. Perhaps we should soon expect  to see a humorous account of what it takes to get your kid into the "right" high school.
