Customer Reviews

College learning

This is a funny book and certainly reinforces the notion that college students are doing a lot more than learning academic subjects while they are in college.

Funny funny funny!

This book is one of the funniest books I have ever read. The original title of the book was "Non Campus Mentis". It is excerpts from college student's term papers on a variety of subjects of a historical nature. I have shared this with many friends and highly recommend they either borrow it or buy it. It is so funny! I just think about this book and start laughing. The cover of the book states "mangled moments of history from actual college students." It is both amazing and probably scary in some of the mistaken words and beliefs from the youth of our nation - and hilarious! I recommend it to everyone I meet - if they want a good laugh.

College students minus IQ's

It's unbelievable how ignorant college students are, but by passing them through high school without any guidance in English or literature, this is what we should expect. The book is really quite amusing and entertaining.

Light and fun

The expected laughs are present in this book and themes are fairly well organized. I bought this for a professor friend who is near retirement, but only downside is that the book is physically smaller than I thought it would be and the cover material isn't great quality. I wouldn't care but for a gift I usually like to step it up a little!!! For the price, a good buy.
