Taking Flight: The Guide to College for Diverse Learners and Non-Traditional Students

★★★★★
★★★★★

English

By (author): Perry LaRoque

Taking Flight provides the essential information students with disabilities will need to be successful in college.

Rather than just focusing on the academic skills needed in college, Taking Flight addresses college as a system that needs to be mastered and the strategies and self-awareness needed to be successful. Thus, it explores topics including:

  • The concept of disability
  • Self-expression
  • The college bureaucracy
  • Roommate relationships
  • And having fun!

    Perry T. LaRoque explores these topics by using personal stories, humor, frank advice, and years of expertise. Taking Flight addresses the truly relevant topics and issues needed for happiness and success in college and provides readers with not only how to do well in the system, but how to overcome a system not designed for todays diverse learners.
