Recommended Readings For Parents

We particularly recommend the following book:

Letting Go: A Parents Guide to Understanding the College Years.

By Karen Levin Coburn (Skidmore '63) & Madge L. Treeger

HarperCollins (paper); ISBN: 006052126-0

"As the father of two children who have left home to attend college and as president of an institution that receives, each year, hundreds of young women and men who are leaving home for the first time, I find Letting Go to be a must read for parents of college-going students."

-- John Brooks Slaughter, President, Occidental College

Order this book from The Skidmore Shop
