- College Unranked
- Edited by Lloyd Thacker
- In this book, the presidents and admission deans of leading colleges and universities remind readers that college choice and admission are a matter of fit, not of winning a prize, and that many colleges are "good" in different ways. They call for bold changes in admissions policies and application strategies to help both colleges and applicants to more fully appreciate what college is really for.
