Book excerpt: Revised by a team of university students, the purpose of this book remains the same: to encourage students to be active participators in university life as a whole, In a personable and refreshingly straightforward style, Bell and McGrane′s critical discussion of academic life distinguishes between learning the institutional rules of higher education and internalizing those rules, demystifies professors and teaching assistants by discussing their institutional roles and incentives, and invites students to take responsibility for - and make the most of - their educational experiences.
