From Ascribe Newsfeed: Even as the nation's high school students settle into a new academic year, the next step -- where to apply to college -- is on the minds of many. A new book by Richard C. Dorf, a professor at the University of California, Davis, Graduate School of Management, provides a systematic and comprehensive road map. "The College Journey: From College to Career 2009" (Davis Press, Inc., July 2008, 264 pages) is based on the premise that there is a best school for every prospective college student and offers a practical algorithm to find the right fit. "The best college is one that helps the student find his or her place in society and prepare for a life of contribution and career," Dorf says. The College Journey guides readers through a comprehensive, seven-step process that moves from identifying values and goals to narrowing the field of possible schools to four top options. Dorf is a professor emeritus of management at UC Davis, where he directs the MBA Consulting Center. AScribe Newswire distributes news from nonprofit and public sector organizations.
