Editorial Review:

Product Description:
In college, there's a surprise around every corner...but that doesn't mean you can't be prepared! From sharing a bathroom with 40 strangers to sharing lecture notes, The Naked Roommate is your behind-the-scenes look at EVERYTHING you need to know about college (but never knew you needed to know).



This essential guide is packed with expert advice on everything from managing money and a job to managing stress and a full class load --plus hilarious, outrageous and telling stories from students on over 100 college campuses.



Learn about dorm do s, don ts and dramas, and how to deal with lying, noisy or nasty roommates (and their unwelcome guests). Don t forget dating and friend issues, too hanging out with the right kind of people will save you a lot of trouble! And though the party scene may be tempting, watch out for the mysterious fruit punch and keep an eye on your buddies, too.



The Naked Roommate is a must-have for all college students. Don t leave your parents home without it!



"If The Naked Roommate existed when I went to college, I would have devoured every page before I stepped foot on campus." -Linda J. Sax, Associate Director of the Higher Education Research Institute and Director of the CIRP Freshman Survey

This book is perfect for all students about to go off to college in the US . It has sensible advice about everything, is well written and fun to read. I recommend this book to all my students as an educational adviser.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Preparation
Saw this first at the local library. After readig about 4 chapters, decided that my oldest grandson, who waws off toe OSU in the fall, ought to be reading this, so I ordered it and sent it to him. His mother called and sid he hadn't put it down since he got it!! He told her, "Gramma did a good job on this one and all my friends need to read this!!"
Thanks!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Awful, didn't show up, didn't answer e-mail
Never got the book and they wouldn't answer e-mail. Worst experience I've ever had with Amazon. I'm really ticked.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Harlan Cohen understands this generation.
When I bought this book I didn't pay attention to who the author was. I guess the title was what caught my eye first! I have been a fan of Harlan Cohen's newspaper column and find his advice to be spot on.

The book is so full of good advice, and while much of it is focused on college life, there is a lot of useful information for any young adult moving out on their own. For example, dealing with parents after the move, the best friend/roommate situation, and sexual assault/alcohol ... Read More

This book was a gift for a great-nephew. He says he liked it. I believe him.
