What really is going on in the university? Does it matter which college you attend? Do you have a strategy in place to make your decision? Is college right for you? Professor Roberts gives honest and candid answers to these questions. As an executive in the financial services industry and as an assistant professor of economics, he has instructed, managed, hired, replaced and mentored thousands of college graduates. He has interviewed hundreds of students. What he has found in his experience has resulted in this compelling and candid assessment of the higher education industry. The situation in our colleges is critical. Most college students are receiving little return on their money. Professor Roberts urges all students and their parents to consider this huge investment and understand the implications of their decision before jumping in and becoming part of the "college frenzy." This is a "must-read" for parents, students, and every person who has an interest in higher education.

Professor Roberts was an executive in several of the nation's largest banks and a consultant for the financial service industry. As an adjunct professor he taught for over six years in accredited universities (at one point teaching four courses in two different schools). He received the highest of student commendations along with one university's teaching excellence award and stipend. He has directly instructed, hired, trained, and replaced thousands of college students. His particular fields required access to graduating students, so he became an executive member of recruiting and mentoring programs for almost ten years. He was a heavy user of the talent of our higher education industry. Professor Roberts has spent his last two years interviewing hundreds of students and graduates, and discussing with them their hopes and disappointments. There are few people this qualified who can stand and speak for students and their parents.
