Student development. Self-betterment. Stimulating youth to address key societal concerns. All three important issues, and all three remained unrelated, until now. These principles have recently been captured for the first time into one core mindset and book entitled Students of Life.

Conceived by two student leaders at America's most popular higher learning institution New York University, Students of Life provides the solutions to the many obstacles today's up-and-coming and current college students of color are bound to face.

Student enrichment based organizations can now exhale as at last a 'student success guide' has been written that encompasses larger issues than maxing out GPA's, yet provides techniques that can be applicable to the accomplishment of any and all tasks.

Written from the rarely heard students' perspective, Students of Life documents all the characteristics of a mindset that will not only aid in utilizing dormant potential to better yourself, but also, energize you to participate in socially productive activities. Keeping along with this theme, a portion of proceeds from all sales will go towards organizations with vested interests in students.

The Students of Life book is formatted to be a light read (to help cut down on non-course related reading) yet tackles heavy topics that promises to leave readers feeling empowered and ready to take on every of life's curve balls.

Though designed to enrich the lifestyle of up-and-coming and current college students of color, this book and its techniques are applicable to all who strive for the conquest of their fears and or goals. We cordially invite you too to become a Students of Life. For more info & to get an autographed copy visit www.gtbooks.net.
