Hello Everyone!

Christmas break is almost upon us and I have decided I'm going to spend a lot of that time learning as much as I can about Higher Education and Student Affairs to prepare for graduate school. I was hoping y'all could provide me with some good books that provide an overview of Higher Education or maybe Student Affairs or just anything a future college administrator would find helpful. Thanks a lot and Happy Thanksgiving!
