Academically Adrift: Limited Learning on College Campuses
“A decade ago the United States led the world in the number of college graduates. Today this is no longer the case.Academically Adriftraises serious questions about the quality of the academic and social experiences of college students. Armed with extensive data and comprehensive analyses, the authors provide a series of compelling solutions for how colleges can reverse the tide and renew their emphases on learning. This first-rate book demonstrates why colleges, like K–12 institutions, now more than ever require major reforms to sustain our democratic society.” (Barbara Schneider, Michigan State University)
