What's So Good About a College Education?
Many students have found this essay helpful as they struggle to figure
out how they should approach college and the ways in which a college

The essay above grew out of a speech I gave to the Otterbein College New Student Welcoming Convocation on September 7, 2001. You can read that brief speech here.
