Their strange behavior—eating meals at their desks, not completing reading assignments, remaining silent through class discussions—made her feel as if she were dealing with a completely foreign culture. So Nathan decided to do what anthropologists do when confused by a different culture: Go live with them. She enrolled as a freshman, moved into the dorm, ate in the dining hall, and took a full load of courses. And she came to understand that being a student is a pretty difficult job, too. Her discoveries about contemporary undergraduate culture are surprising and her observations are invaluable, making My Freshman Year essential reading for students, parents, faculty, and anyone interested in educational policy.Product IdentifiersPublisherPenguin Publishing GroupISBN-100143037471ISBN-139780143037477eBay Product ID (ePID)51062344Product Key FeaturesFormatPaperbackPublication Year2006LanguageEnglishDimensionsWeight6.1 OzWidth5in.Height0.6in.Length8.2in.Additional Product FeaturesDewey Edition22Grade toUpDewey Decimal378.1/98Grade from12Age Range18-UpCopyright Date2006AuthorRebekah NathanNumber of Pages208 PagesLc Classification NumberLb3605.N34 2006Publication Date2006-07-25ReviewsIts anthropology at its best: accessible, illuminating, contextual.
