Give it to your child upon entering college

This book can be read in one sitting so, there is a great liklihood that a college bound student will take the time to read it. As a parent, this book gives the advice I would personally give a student. The author divides the book into advice for living Jewishly on campus as well as general advice applicable to all college students (such as getting along with roomates, studying, etc.). The author tackles contrversial subjects such as interdating and he doesn't waffle.... he takes a stand on the issue. There are no great insights but, there is a lot of common sense information. Onw drawback is that the editor did a poor job, allowing grammatical errors to get into print.

Great book...Finally a book for young people!

What a great idea for a book. This book is an excellent aid for kids in school. It talks to them on their level and gets to the point. My child was able to use the advice and suggestions many times. All synagogues and parents should make sure their college students have this book.

A must have book for any Jewish student entering college.

This book was a tremendous help to me in college. It was short and to the point. There were other books I read for school, but they were all too long and too boring. I recommend this book to any freshman college student.

EXCELLENT BOOK FOR YOUR COLLEGE STUDENT

I read this book in a night! It was so easy to read, very easy to understand. I have 3 kids and hope they Stay Jewish so I will have them read this. The language in this book is very clear to read for young people and the author seems to be an ideal role model. Instead of nagging your kid about dating outside the faith...give them this book!
