Sinopsis

A sharp, funny send-up of college life told through a prank-filled freshman’s letters. This humorous collection follows Tom as he navigates friendships, finances, romance, and mischief on campus. With playful, episodic misadventures and a sly eye on college culture, the book blends satire with affection for youth and independence.

- An epistolary voice that captures a student’s bold schemes, missteps, and quick wit.
- Vignettes about college life, family expectations, and the pull between responsibility and fun.
- Light-hearted plots involving friendships, dating mishaps, and the oddball campus world.
- Accessible humor that pokes fun at money, fame, and classroom life without losing heart for the characters.

Ideal for readers who enjoy witty, character-driven humor about college days and the antics of a bright, irreverent narrator.

Excerpt from The Rubyiat of a Freshman

Before discarding this subject, will you kindly reach for your checkbook and scribble me a jolly old draft for, say, $200? I will need that amount to complete my football equipment, as the college does not furnish the skis.

Well, governor, I will tell you how I secured a billet on the football team. It was really quite interesting. I was standing in the gym reading The Art of High Diving, by Jess Willard, with an introduction by Bombardier Wells, the An nette Kellerman of the prize ring, when our genial and well liked coach came over and made me the cynosure of both his eyes.
