The Roadmap to Investing in Yourself: The Real Costs of a College Education, 2nd Edition discusses many of the economic misconceptions about earning a college degree. While it is widely believed that attending college in itself guarantees wealth, thinking of a college degree as a commodity has kept students, parents, and higher education professionals from understanding the full range of short-term and long-term costs. This book illustrates how the promotion of education merely as a commodity comes at a high price for both the individual and society. Authors Tara Jabbaar-Gyambrah and Seneca Vaught argue that the idea of 'investment' must shift from a short-sighted view, focusing only on economic concerns, to a broader and more holistic understanding of what college costs and what students can expect in return.
