520    We all know that good study habits, supportive parents, 
       and engaged instructors are all keys to getting good 
       grades in college. But as Janice M. McCabe shows in this 
       illuminating study, there is one crucial factor 
       determining a student's academic success that most of us 
       tend to overlook: who they hang out with. Surveying a 
       range of different kinds of college friendships, 
       Connecting in College details the fascinatingly complex 
       ways students' social and academic lives intertwine and 
       how students attempt to balance the two in their pursuit 
       of straight As, good times, or both. As McCabe and the 
       students she talks to show, the friendships we forge in 
       college are deeply meaningful, more meaningful than we 
       often give them credit for. They can also vary widely. 
       Some students have only one tight-knit group, others move 
       between several, and still others seem to meet someone new
       every day. Some students separate their social and 
       academic lives, while others rely on friendships to help 
       them do better in their coursework. McCabe explores how 
       these dynamics lead to different outcomes and how they 
       both influence and are influenced by larger factors such 
       as social and racial inequality. She then looks toward the
       future and how college friendships affect early adulthood,
       ultimately drawing her findings into a set of concrete 
       solutions to improve student experiences and better 
       guarantee success in college and beyond.
