In the fall of 1999, the author was taking his son to Cornell to begin his college career. His parents had taken him to the same college in the fall of 1965. He immediately notices all of the changes in the life on campus for students. In 1965, the men and women's dorms were far far apart and there were rules about having the opposite sex in your dorm. In 1999, the dorms were co-ed. In 1965, there were rules about everything and in 1999, life was much freer. He uses his son starting Cornell to give us the fictionalized account of his years at Cornell. I was a college student a few years later and lived through all of the unrest on college campuses due to the draft, the war in Vietnam and the beginning of the civil rights and women's right movements. The author gives an accurate account of what it was like on campus during those tumultuous year. This is an interesting view of life during the 60s and all of the things that went on to cause such an upheaval in American society.

Thanks to the author for a copy of this book to read and review. All opinions are my own.
