The Years That Matter Most: How College Makes or Breaks Us by Paul Tough

4.0

Really fantastic book that helped me understand more of the systemic inequities in higher education. Tough does a really good job of weaving together individual stories with data. Learning about the impact of things like affluence and higher SAT scores or the challenges that students of color and low income students face at institutions through this dual narrative and data driven lens is really illuminating and will make me continue to think about our systems of higher education.
