The Insider's Guide to the Colleges 2003

by Staff of the Yale Daily News (eds.)
977 pages (trade paperback)
Genre: Nonfiction/Self-Help/Education
More reliable than Fiske when dating is accounted for (renovations, changed outsourcing, etc.) A good reference book, in my opinion, but the organization (alphabetical by state) is not conducive to browsing by similarity or cross-applications--one of my favorite parts of Fiske's guide were the similar colleges suggestion sidebar.
And that's all I have to say, really. College research is interesting enough (for me, and I admit that I'm rather a freak in this regard) but it's not much to write home about.
