For Freshman Orientation courses found in two- and four-year colleges and universities.
- Cornerstone: Building on Your Best, 3/E, is a program geared toward empowering students to make responsible choices in college and in life. The book encompasses all of the major areas of a freshman orientation course, including transition to college, goal setting, stress management, study skills, learning styles, multiple intelligences, health, relationships, resources, and careers. In addition, it includes unique and powerful chapters on important topics such as motivation, self-esteem, and diversity.
- Cornerstone: Building on Your Best “shows” rather than “tells.” Its real-life vignettes and self-reflective exercises engage the student and help them look at their lives with a new perspective. This text promotes growth, change, and responsible decision making—whether the student is looking at his/her own study habits, facing prejudices, or making difficult decisions about relationships and career. Cornerstone: Building on Your Best, 3/E, is truly a program to help your students “build on their best.”

Review
"Of primary importance is for students to begin to understand their responsibilities in the learning environment. The revision continues to emphasize a student-centered approach to change in college." — Bennie Perdue, Miami Dade Community College
"On Persist: "I especially like the subtitle 'Things You Need to Know About College, But Might Never Ask' because it tags the new student's dilemma: they don't know what they don't know." — Marie Zander, New York Institute of Technology
". . . the new exercises require the students to use critical thinking skills that I believe are essential to the academic success of every college student. . ." — Betty Fortune, Houston Community College
". . . the section which asks students to reflect on the question of what their college expects of them .... provides clarity to students to begin to take responsibility for their education and look at the importance of taking an active role in their education." — Joan O'Connor, New York Institute of Technology
