A list-based guide to college life

Organized into more than 250 lists, *College in a Can* ranges across the practical and social questions that accompany campus life. Its subjects include choosing a college, packing for a dorm, sharing space with a roommate, studying and taking notes, meeting people, cooking with a toaster oven, and finding work after graduation. The book also mixes in lighter topics such as college movies and radio stations. That breadth makes it a compact reference to consult by topic, covering both preparation for campus and everyday concerns once there.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students preparing to start college who want practical checklists and tips.
  • College students interested in quick, topic-by-topic guidance on dorm life, studying, and social life.
  • Readers who prefer reference material organized in short lists.
