Blake R. Silver – University of Chicago Press, 2024
Institutions of higher education are often described as "ivory towers," places of privilege where students exist in a "campus bubble," insulated from the trials of the outside world. These metaphors reveal a widespread belief that college provides young people with stability and keeps insecurity at bay. But for many students,…

Kathryn M. Kroeper; Maithreyi Gopalan; Katherine T. U. Emerson; Gregory M. Walton – Educational Psychology Review, 2025

Such "social-belonging" interventions can help students take advantage of opportunities available to them to develop their…

In recent years, a narrative has taken hold in the popular media that college may not be worth the investment, given the increasing costs of college. However, national studies have consistently shown that higher levels of education are related to higher pay, upward mobility, improved health outcomes, and greater civic involvement. The purpose of…
