The book's website has
this to say about the about the author:
"The sum of his experience led Mr. Pope to believe that the small
college, dedicated to liberal arts and sciences education, is not just the
wisest and most sensible choice, but also the most practical in a world
where tomorrow’s jobs don’t even exist today. Colleges That
Change Lives (Penguin, 2000) profiles his top 40 choices—schools that
he claims will do as much as, and perhaps even more than, any name-brand
schools to fully educate students and to give them rich, full lives."
If these schools have such an impact on young lives,
we think the neighborhoods around campus and their college towns are well
worth checking out. See the list at left...
College town life
College towns make great hometowns. Students, singles, families, working people,
and retirees all can find connections and a niche for themselves in the wide
variety of college towns across the United States. Town and gown together
create a better quality of life.
