About the previoius edition, NY Times Columnist Frank Bruni, the author of Where You Go Is Not Who You'll Be: An Antidote to the College Admissions Mania, advised his readers that "they'd be wise to consult a website and book that, surprisingly, fly somewhat under the radar in an era when applicants and their parents are hungrier than ever for any college-admissions resource that might help. "The book could use a title snappier and sexier than the one it has, 'A Review of Fifty Public University Honors Programs.' It was first published in 2012 and updated [in 2014]. It's linked to publicuniversityhonors.com, which began in 2011 and, like the book, provides thorough appraisals of individual honors colleges and programs and intelligent thoughts on how they fit into the higher-education landscape."

Synopsis
INSIDE HONORS provides an in-depth look at the "ground game" of public university honors programs--their curriculum requirements, number and type of honors classes, actual class sizes and graduation rates, honors dorm features and room availability, priority registration for all courses, and the record of winning prestigious awards., How do parents and prospective students have any idea about the true quality of an honors program, assuming that the students enrolled have met high admission standards? Understanding what makes a program substantive must begin with an analysis of the "ground game," the graduation requirements, the specific mix of classes by discipline, the total number of honors sections, actual class sizes, honors grad rates--and, yes, the availability of special housing and perks, including priority registration for all courses. These factors and others are rated for the 50 honors colleges and programs listed below. Another 10 programs receive unrated, summary reviews Find out if honors programs are really a combination of a "liberal arts college in the midst of a prominent research university, with all the advantages of both"? This typical description of public honors programs is sometimes true, sometimes misleading, and fairly often offset by equivalent values that are not mentioned in the hype. College choice almost always involves money. Is that private college that your National Merit Scholar has always dreamed of attending really worth an extra $30,000 a year, since all merit aid at the private college is need-based, and your income, even with a family of four, leaves such a big balance? What, then, might make a public honors option truly competitive? It might be those eight honors math sections, or those interdisciplinary seminars at every class level, or that study-abroad stipend to attend Oxford in the summer, or that (mostly) quiet honors dorm with on-site dining, mentors, and study lounges on every floor, or the combination of writing, rhetoric, and honors business classes that will make your student a well-rounded success in life. And, often, it will be that merit award worth $10,000 a year, to go with a waiver of out-of-state tuition. Yes, honors programs are complicated, but so are your college choice decisions. To understand exactly what these programs offer, parents and prospective students need to look inside honors.
