But when Newland left her Alabama hometown and arrived at Duke University, she found a liberal arts campus unlike anything depicted in those glossy guidebooks. The hypercompetitive battle for internships begins freshman year, and the economic pressures-student loans, the daunting cost of graduate degrees, high unemployment-are relentless. This perfect storm, brewing on campuses across the country, has fueled a Wall Street recruiting machine that is winning over the best and the brightest. In no time, Newland was seduced. From Newland's turbulent four years comes a provocative story of the higher education industry; the tension between ambition and indebtedness, privilege and purpose; and one student's journey to make sense of it all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Newland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0989776506\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780989776509\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stone Hall Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/18\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.51d","brand":"Laura Newland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43927123427583,"sku":"9780989776509","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_2adff296-84f4-4f9d-93a6-d32547684817.jpg?v=1681086971","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/chasing-zeroes-laura-newland-9780989776509","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
