Rethinking Reading in College argues for more systematic attention to the role of reading comprehension in college, as a necessary step in addressing the inequities in student achievement that otherwise increase over time.

Synthesizing theory from literacy scholars with strategies derived from classroom inquiry projects, and through a critique of the philosophy behind the Common Core State Standards, Arlene Fish Wilner examines the needs of college-bound high school students and interrogates the nature of remediation in college. Arguing that when supported by rhetorical-reading assignments, students in all first-year writing classes can and should explore complex and enduring texts.
