5.0 out of 5 stars
One of a handful of books every educator should own., May 25, 1999

This review is from: How College Affects Students: Findings and Insights from Twenty Years of Research (The Jossey-Bass Higher and Adult Education Series) (Paperback)
How College Affects Students : Findings and Insights from Twenty Years of Research (The Jossey-Bass Higher and Adult Education Series) by Ernest T. Pascarella, Patrick T. Terenzini is one of the most valuable reference resources an educator can own. Should be mandatory reading for anyone in coporporate univesities, higher education, or in the policy or management arenas revolving around learning. It was one of the essential references I used while writing Transforming Higher Education, Strategic Change and Strategic Choices. A must buy and well worth every penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Must have for college administrators, June 22, 2004

If there is a college administration/student personnel services program that DOES NOT have this as required reading, it should. This is the most comprehensive (and heaviest!) book in the field---summarizing research and theory that is most relevant to today's college administrators and educators. Not only should it be on their shelves---but should be taken down and referred to often!
