Every college and university has a story-and no one tells those stories better than former New York Times education editor Edward B. Fiske. Counselors everywhere agree, the Fiske Guide to Colleges is the best way to get to know the unique personalities of different schools without visiting campus.In addition to Fiske's trademark descriptions, exclusive ratings, up-to-date tips from current students, and tools for broadening and narrowing your list, the Fiske Guide now includes useful information and data on diversity and sexual assault. The Fiske Guide is the #1 source for discovering more than 320 of the best colleges and universities-and finding the right one for you.
In 1980, when he was the New York Times' education editor, Edward B. Fiske recognized the need for greater information for college-bound kids and their families while making educational decisions. The Fiske Guide to Colleges was born, and it is today the #1 bestselling college guide. Fiske is also the author of the Fiske Guide to Getting Into the Correct College, Fiske Nailing the New SAT, Fiske Real College Essays That Work, Fiske WordPower, Fiske Countdown to College, and a number of other books that will help you identify and be accepted to institutions that are a good fit for you. Fiske, a graduate of Wesleyan University, went on to Columbia University and other prestigious universities to further his education.
In 1991, he left the Times to pursue a range of educational and journalistic interests, including the publication of Smart Schools, Smart Kids, a book about school reform. He can be found playing tennis, sailing, or undertaking research for UNESCO and other international organizations on the educational difficulties of South Africa and other third-world nations when he is not visiting colleges. Fiske is based in Durham, North Carolina, near the Duke University campus, where his wife, Helen Ladd, is a professor. When Schools Compete: A Cautionary Tale, Elusive Equity: Education Reform in Post-Apartheid South Africa, and Handbook of Research in Education Finance and Policy are books they coauthored.
