YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe tremendous response Bruni got to his 2014 op-ed piece, “Our Crazy College Crossroads,” showed that he’d hit a nerve regarding the pressure students face to attend top schools. Expanding on the column and its impact, Bruni, veteran New York Times critic, reporter, and columnist as well as the author of Born Round and Ambling into History, puts college into perspective as just one of many experiences over the course of a life, and helps empower students to see that college will be what they make of it, and not their making or unmaking.
