“As we redesign #highered programs & practices we must remember:
*40% of today’s students work full-time;
*57% live independently w/o support from parents;
*Nearly 25% have children of their own;
*42% are students of color;
*46% are 1st gen college students” via @insidehighered

I’ve gladly accepted a challenge from @Mrs_Malkowski to post covers of 7 books I LOVE: no explanations, no reviews—just a cover. Each time I post a cover, I’ll ask someone else to take up the challenge of 1 cover a day for a week. My day 1 nomination goes to @Teach_jules
