Paperback. Zustand: Good. Dr. Neil Spector, one of the nation's top oncologists, led a charmed life. He was educated at prestigious universities, trained at top medical centers, and had married the woman of his dreams. It seemed too perfect. And it was. In 1994, it all came crashing down. He and his wife lost two unborn children. And a mysterious illness brought him to the brink of death. In his compelling memoir, Gone in a Heartbeat, Dr. Spector describes in great detail how he was misdiagnosed and, despite being a medical insider, was often discounted by his fellow physicians. As he recounts his own unorthodox approach to medicine and physician/patient relationships, Dr. Spector encourages readers to never surrender their power to a third party. He tells of courageous patients who served as role models, he concedes that doctors do a disservice to patients when we treat them like statistics, and he advocates for educated patients who can make informed decisions collaboratively and not simply follow instructions. In Dr. Spector's words: To recognize that we are in control of our own bodies and destinies can be a powerful step toward true healing. Readers of Gone in a Heartbeat will never view the medical profession the same again.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. It Takes A Campus takes readers on a journey of author Kyle Ellis' experience from a novice in retention efforts to a campus leader in the field of student retention. In 2008, when the University of Mississippi began to take action on their retention efforts, their first time, full-time (FTFT) retention rate was 78.3%. With their recent retention record-setting year (86.5%), they have received numerous accolades, praise, and inquiries from colleagues across the nation regarding their efforts that made such a tremendous impact. It Takes A Campus can serve as a guide for campus professionals who are in the early stages of their retention efforts, as well as for seasoned retention gurus, who are seeking to improve existing programs or identify specific initiatives that proved effective and adapt them to their own student population. This book, which covers fifteen campus-wide initiatives which have been successfully implemented at the University of Mississippi and which have been instrumental in raising retention rates, is designed to be practitioner-friendly, so higher education professionals who work daily with retention efforts, can create, modify, or assess retention initiatives on their campuses. As the saying goes, it takes a village to enact positive change - or in this case, a campus.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In 1962, while a riot was in full swing on the University of Mississippi campus over the admission of James Meredith, Robert Khayat was an All-Pro kicker for the newly integrated Washington Redskins. He had no way of knowing that, thirty-five years later, he would be leading the University of Mississippi through one of its greatest challenges - its association with the Confederate flag. Robert Khayat's The Education of a Lifetime reveals his childhood days in Moss Point, Mississippi; the state's segregationist policies that prevented his SEC championship baseball team from playing in the College World Series; and the sadness of watching his father's arrest. These seemingly disparate events worked to prepare him for his future battle with the vestiges of racial strife that continued to haunt Ole Miss' culture when he was selected as the University's fifteenth Chancellor. We relive, along with the author, the courting of eccentric donors; private conversations with presidents, governors, football coaches, and celebrities; and the struggle to find a balance between the South's past and a promising future. In this funny, touching, and insightful memoir, readers get a behind-the-scenes look at how one man's vision and dedication - along with a commitment to respecting the dignity of every individual - can change a culture.…
