As a Bowdoin student I feel compelled to respond to the review written by a fellow student. I was elated to see a description of Bowdoin College in The Shadow University. It seems that too often smaller colleges are overlooked, allowed to operate in obscurity giving their administrators free reign to intimidate, threaten, and harass. Bowdoin's official policies as stated in the Student Handbook (not the web site) match the descriptions written by Kors and Silverglate. I take comfort in the knowledge that Bowdoin has lost major lawsuits for improper dismissals but I fear that little will change here. This is a great book that should be read by every college student.
