The Fiske Guide to Colleges. The independent guide features the country’s best and most interesting colleges and universities.
The Guide maintains its independence and has no outside relationship with the colleges it selects. Its goal is to help future students make informed decisions about the best colleges in the nation. Author Edward B. Fiske served as education editor of the New York Times for 17 years. The book attempts to present the personality of each school based on a broad range of subjects including student body, academics, social life and financial aid.
