The competition for students is growing among colleges and universities, leading administrators and student personnel professionals to ask what they can do to recruit and retain their students without lowering academic standards. The Freshman Seminar is one answer: it is a full-semester course designed to train would-be students in the skills they will need to survive in a student's world. Remedial courses alone are not sufficient; there are a host of meta-academic activities to be mastered, among them note taking, test taking, class participation, interacting with instructors, and developing realistic attitudes towards learning. The authors, initiators and experienced teachers in Hunter College's Freshman Seminar Program, describe the rationale for such a course, as well as its value. Their step-by-step approach to establishing and teaching a freshman seminar details the fundamentals of curriculum design and teaching methods and describes specific instructional material for classroom use—lesson plans, games, attitude inventories, and role playing. This is a comprehensive and practical guidebook for the college administrator who wants to reduce student attrition and for the student personnel professional who will implement such a program.

Communicates college-level expectations during orientation, boot camp, and freshman seminars and sets the stage for higher student performance and greater faculty engagement. College Orientation targets freshmen entering four-year institutions and is designed for use from college orientation programs until graduation day and beyond. It provides a roadmap for campus staff and faculty offering orientation programs to facilitate behaviors that increase retention, improve four-year graduation rates, and ultimately, reduce student loan debt. Students receive the information they need to adapt to college life and stay on track towards a degree-all the while learning behaviors that promote achievement after graduation. This comprehensive reference tool is written from an insider's point of view and has a distinct focus on promoting appropriate college conduct. It covers a multitude of topics that help students navigate the university system while learning how to adapt this information to their future workplace.

In Teaching Critical Thinking, renowned cultural critic and progressive educator bell hooks addresses some of the most compelling issues facing teachers in and out of the classroom today. In a series of short, accessible, and enlightening essays, hooks explores the confounding and sometimes controversial topics that teachers and students have urged her to address since the publication of the previous best-selling volumes in her Teaching series, Teaching to Transgress and Teaching Community. The issues are varied and broad, from whether meaningful teaching can take place in a large classroom setting to confronting issues of self-esteem. One professor, for example, asked how black female professors can maintain positive authority in a classroom without being seen through the lens of negative racist, sexist stereotypes. One teacher asked how to handle tears in the classroom, while another wanted to know how to use humor as a tool for learning. Addressing questions of race, gender, and class in this work, hooks discusses the complex balance that allows us to teach, value, and learn from works written by racist and sexist authors. Highlighting the importance of reading, she insists on the primacy of free speech, a democratic education of literacy. Throughout these essays, she celebrates the transformative power of critical thinking. This is provocative, powerful, and joyful intellectual work. It is a must read for anyone who is at all interested in education today.

The 2010 edition of this monograph addresses many topics (e.g., administration of orientation programs, family involvement, student characteristics and needs, assessment, and orientation for specific student populations and institutional types) that were included in previous editions but approaches them with new information, updated data, and current theory. However, this edition also takes up new topics in response to the "opportunities and concerns" facing orientation, transition, and retention professionals such as collaborations among campus units in the development and delivery of orientation, the increase in nontraditional student populations, the need for effective crisis planning and management in orientation programs, new technologies, and even the challenge of making the case for orientation in an era of diminishing resources. The authors have carefully penned chapters incorporating contemporary information, ideas, and concepts while being reflective of traditional practices. Following a preface by Margaret J. Barr and a foreword by Jennifer R. Keup and Craig E. Mack, chapters in this edition include: (1) Brief Overview of the Orientation, Transition, and Retention Field (Craig E. Mack); (2) Theoretical Perspectives on Orientation (Denise L. Rode and Tony W. Cawthon); (3) Making the Case for Orientation: Is It Worth It? (Bonita C. Jacobs); (4) Administration of a Comprehensive Orientation Program (April Mann, Charlie Andrews, and Norma Rodenburg); (5) Community College Orientation and Transition Programs (Cathy J. Cuevas and Christine Timmerman); (6) Channeling Parental Involvement to Support Student Success (Jeanine A. Ward-Roof, Laura A. Page, and Ryan Lombardi); (7) Extensions of Traditional Orientation Programs (Tracy L. Skipper, Jennifer A. Latino, Blaire Moody Rideout, and Dorothy Weigel); (8) Technology in Orientation (J.J. Brown and Cynthia L. Hernandez); (9) Incorporating Crisis Planning and Management Into Orientation Programs (Dian Squire, Victor Wilson, Joe Ritchie, and Abbey Wolfman); (10) Orientation and First-Year Programs: A Profile of Participating Students (Maureen E. Wilson and Michael Dannells); (11) Creating a Developmental Framework for New Student Orientation to Address the Needs of Diverse Populations (Archie P. Cubarrubia and Jennifer C. Schoen); (12) Designing Orientation and Transition Programs for Transfer Students (Shandol C. Hoover); (13) Nontraditional Is the New Traditional: Understanding Today's College Student (Michael J. Knox and Brittany D. Henderson); (14) Building the Case for Collaboration in Orientation Programs: Campus Culture, Politics, and Power (Beth M. Lingren Clark and Matthew J. Weigand); (15) Assessment and Evaluation in Orientation (Robert Schwartz and Dennis Wiese); and (16) Reflections on the History of Orientation, Transition, and Retention Programs (Jeanine A. Ward-Roof and Kathy L. Guthrie). (Individual chapters contain references.) [For the 2nd Edition (2003), see ED478603.].

The present book interrogates the acts and social practices involving violence in the freshmen orientation program. The freshman orientation week is typically an exciting and memorable time for new students as they meet their peers and become acquainted with their new academic environment (Hove et al., 2010; Garcia, Lechner, Frerich, Lust, & Eisenberg, 2012). Unfortunately, there have been violent situations during these celebrations in the past.
