BOOK REVIEW College gets a serving of self-help

Entering North or South Dining Hall, one might hope each item on the menu - from angel hair pasta to zucchini - is boiled, baked, fried or ew York Times steamed with the warmth of caring hands and the compassion of thoughtful eyes reading a recipe BESTSElliNG AUTHORS book. In some cases, yes, dining hall food is made with good intentions, but what about when person­ al attention is needed to confront the trauma every Jack Canfield college student sufferes on a daily basis? To heal collegiate suffering, four New York Times bestselling authors compiled a book of self­ Mark Victor Hansen help stories that deal with college life and the obstacles it presents. "Chicken Soup for the College Kimberly Kirberger Soul" considers perspectives from parents, profes­ sors, celebrities and, of course, students to create Dan Clark a loose guide to living life well in a college setting. To some extent, the compilation succeeds in pre­ senting an all around view of the many bumps and detours a student may experience throughout a college career. But the book's concentration on cute humor and sentimental memories sometimes drags into a realm of corniness difficult to ignore. Taking the chronological approach, the book starts during senior year of high school, as stu­ dents begin applying to colleges and receiving acceptance or decline letters. Including an essay from a college-admission application, bloopers from other essays, lessons learned by students who were declined into going to the local college and a message from Dave Barry, this chapter certainly gets the message that getting into college is just as crucial to one's sanity as the college experience is itself. The high point clearly was the message by Dave Barry, who cleverly blows off the college visit as an attempt by the college to prove that they are the best college out there. Several of his points apply directly to the Notre Dame experience, particularly those regarding overbearing parents who have been mapping out their son's or daughter's life since conception. He also questions the value of such subjects as "Seventeenth-Century English metaphysical poetry," realizing a conversation will rarely turn to such scholarly matters. The following chapter discusses one of the more difficult periods of any person's life, the transition from high school to college life. This chapter nose­ dives into a realm of sentimentality that reverses the comic tone of the first chapter. At this point, the change-up doesn't feel as an attack on the seri­ ousness of the transition experience; instead, it efficiently brings out the deep emotion involved in leaving the nest and enduring college as an indi­ vidual. A remarkable poem from the perspective of a young man leaving his mother, "The 'No Hug' Rule" makes a whirlwind of the emotions felt by any college student who struggles with a desire for parental involvement and independence. Though not a traditionally beautiful work of poetry, "The 'No Hug' Rule" touches especially upon the emo­ tional viewpoint of the male, who struggles with keeping up a macho guise regardless of the emo­ tions he may feel. The poem is also refreshing as the majority of the other stories come from the female perspec­ Inspiring and Humorous tive, touching on sisterhood, feminine encourage­ ment, dating, breaking up and date rape. Though a couple of these stories peaked some interest, par­ ticularly "How to Get an A on Your Final Exam" Stories About College and "Reverse Living," most of the stories fall into the huge ocean of schmaltz that characterizes a Robin Williams movie. Such lines as "One mention of Gaffield (an off-campus home at Northwestern University), and all our faces relax with a softness agement, as it lets everyone know that anyone can encouragement can go a long way. usually reserved for remembering a first love" are do whatever they please if they put their mind to it.
