The Secret Syllabus draws on Phelan and Burnham's experiences with thousands of undergraduate and graduate students. Weaving engaging storytelling with practical, actionable advice, they illustrate both productive and counterproductive approaches to achieving academic excellence, and highlight the importance of setting and attaining goals, nurturing strong professional relationships, developing resiliency, and more.Don't resort to Plan B when your college career is at stake! This fresh, funny, and boldly innovative book reveals the secrets to crafting a rich and rewarding college experience and a promising future"--
