About this book
Reviews
“The book title, Rethinking Campus Life, is both specific and referential. The essays offer a literal rethinking of traditionally told tales of college student life … the volume is both a rethinking of an older frame from the past and an introduction to new work in the future. It is a comprehensive and forward-thinking volume.” (Kate Rousmaniere, History of Education Quarterly, Vol. 59 (2), May, 2019)
