Their strange behavior&#151;eating meals at their desks, not completing reading assignments, remaining silent through class discussions&#151;made her feel as if she were dealing with a completely foreign culture. So Nathan decided to do what anthropologists do when confused by a different culture: Go live with them. She enrolled as a freshman, moved into the dorm, ate in the dining hall, and took a full load of courses. And she came to understand that being a student is a pretty difficult job, too. Her discoveries about contemporary undergraduate culture are surprising and her observations are invaluable, making <I>My Freshman Year</I> essential reading for students, parents, faculty, and anyone interested in educational policy. 1071716 2005 My Freshman Year: What a Professor Learned by Becoming a Student total:194|5:10|4:52|3:88|2:38|1:6| 194 604 344 54 4 1 false false Tue Mar 28 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sun Feb 24 09:24:36 -0800 2008 Sun Feb 24 09:24:46 -0800 2008
