  With keen insight, Kathleen deLaski reimagines what higher education might offer and whom it should serve in Who Needs College Anymore? In the wake of declining US university enrollment and widespread crises of confidence in the value of a college degree, deLaski urges a mindset shift regarding the learning routes and credentials that best prepare students for success after high school. 
   
   
   
  The work draws on a decade of design-thinking research from the nonprofit Education Design Lab as well as 150 interviews of educational experts, college and career counselors, teachers, employers, and learners. DeLaski applies human-centered design to higher education reform, engaging the perspective of end users to search for better solutions. She highlights ten top principles based on user feedback and considers how well they are currently being enacted by colleges. 
   
   
   
  In particular, she urges institutions to better attend to the needs of new-majority learners, often described as nontraditional students, including people from low-income backgrounds, people of color, first-generation students, veterans, single mothers, rural students, part-time attendees, and neurodivergent students. She finds ample opportunity for colleges to support learners via alternative pathways to marketable knowledge. This work suggests innovation as a means of evolution.

  "I am no bird; and no net ensnares me: I am a free human being with an independent will."
  
  Orphaned, unloved, and mistreated, Jane Eyre survives the brutal conditions of Lowood School to become a governess at the mysterious Thornfield Hall. There, she encounters the brooding, cynical Edward Rochester. As an unlikely romance ignites between the spirited governess and her employer, the shadows of Thornfield begin to whisper. A terrifying secret hidden in the attic threatens to destroy Jane's chance at happiness and forces her to choose between her heart and her integrity.
  
  A Revolution of the Self: Unlike the passive heroines of her time, Charlotte Brontë's Jane is a woman of intense inner life and moral courage. The novel follows her journey from the "Red Room" of her cruel childhood to the desolate moors and back again. It is a profound exploration of social class, religious hypocrisy, and the struggle for female autonomy in a world designed to suppress it.
  
  The Ultimate Gothic Romance: Jane Eyre is a masterclass in atmospheric tension. From the supernatural omens of the "Great Horse-Chestnut tree" struck by lightning to the chilling laughter heard behind locked doors, the novel keeps readers on the edge of their seats. It remains the definitive "Dark Romance," proving that true love requires equality, and true freedom requires the courage to walk away.
  
  An epic of the soul that has captivated millions for generations. Purchase "Jane Eyre" today and meet literature's most unbreakable heroine.
