New Beginnings

Textbook was required for a college class. Textbook was very helpful in relating to college experience for adult students, some of the expectations and obstacles adult students will encounter. Book was also helpful explaining issues with plagiarism, how easy it is to plagiarize, and steps to take to avoid making this mistake.
