What really goes on behind the ivy-covered walls of American colleges and universities? The author draws upon nearly fifty years of experience and observation to offer the reader an eye-opening glimpse of the human comedy of modern campus life. Be a fly on the wall as top administrators wrestle with a range of issues which span from sex for grades to brazen NCAA violations. Hear the real dialogue. Observe side-splitting, clumsy, and often ingenious machinations to avoid personal and professional calamity. Be prepared to take sides as the book’s characters navigate through raucous fraternity wars to serious political plays for hundreds of millions of dollars. Be ready to smile, to laugh, and most of all, be willing to understand and forgive.
