The first book every college student should read is the Bureau of Labor Statistic’s Occupational Outlook Handbook.

But, all too often young people graduate college mired in a lifetime of student debt with little to no prospect of better employment.

But, a little research up front with the Occupational Outlook Handbook will help students avoid a lifetime of debt. With the Handbook they’ll understand how much the jobs in their discipline will pay, what’s the likelihood of getting that type of employment, and the demands of that career.

#3 The Little Prince

I'm a college sophomore at the University of Texas at Austin who loves to read-- and just finished her first year of college.

My first year Iread The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery. It's a kids' book, I know! But that's precisely what helped me; its complex message presented in a simple manner made me remember that I don't need to sound flowery or intelligent or pretentious. Just myself. It also helped me manage my stress about growing up. College is when it really hits you that your childhood is over, after all.
