note = {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.},
