It is the most honest book I have read about community colleges...\"-Steven Mintz, Ph.D., Professor of History, The University of Texas at Austin\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMost of the books written about community colleges have been dry and impersonal-but not this one. \u003ci\u003eMisfit: Confessions of a Community College Professor\u003c\/i\u003e is very personal. It's also insightful, educational and entertaining. Displaying his reverence for the irreverent, Jenkins leads us through the obstacle course of his final year before retiring as professor of English at a small community college. Among those we encounter are other faculty, administrators and a host of diverse students. A colorful lot, they bring their vitality to this unique memoir, one that's both funny and thought-provoking.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Greg Jenkins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948598930\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948598934\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Open Books Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/21\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.91d","brand":"Greg Jenkins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":50780042199295,"sku":"9781948598934","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/misfit-greg-jenkins-9781948598934","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
